HOW DOES INDUCTION COOKING WORK
Induction coils beneath the cooking surface produce a magnetic field that causes
a heating reaction in iron-based pots and pans. As a result, the cooking surface
itself does not heat. Heat is produced in the cooking pan and is not generated
until the pan is placed on the cooking surface.
BENEFITS OF INDUCTION COOKING
:
Energy Efficient and Fast
• H eats only the bottom of the pan, so energy is not wasted. No preheating
or constant warming necessary.
• Heat is generated instantly, saving you time.
:
Even-Heat Distribution
• H ot spots are eliminated because the bottom of your cookware heats uniformly.
Easy to Clean
:
• Spills are less likely to stick or burn to the cooktop surface; they can simply
be wiped away.
Safe
• No open flame or exposed heating elements.
• Does not heat up without a pan.
• Automatically stops cooking cycle once cookware is removed.
CHOOSING YOUR COOKWARE
Cookware that works with induction cooktops
• Iron-based stainless steel, cast iron, and enamel-coated cast iron
• Flat-bottomed cookware.
• C ookware marked by the manufacturer as being induction-ready or having
the induction-ready symbol
Note: Another way to tell if they are induction ready is by taking a magnet and
setting it on the bottom of the pot or pan. If the magnet sticks to the bottom
then the cookware is induction ready.
Cookware that DOES NOT work with induction cooktops
• A luminum-copper bottom, ceramic, glass, pottery, anodized aluminum, heat resistant.
• Rounded bottom pots or pans.
