Induction hobs are still a big trend in kitchen furnishing. It's not just about the aesthetics, but induction hobs are growing in popularity thanks to their exceptional functionality and time and energy savings.
How does an induction hob work?
An induction hob heats metal cookware by inducing an eddy current created by a high-frequency magnetic field. The heat is generated directly in the base of the cookware and not on the surface of the hob as we know from electric/glass ceramic hobs. The heat is not generated under the food container, but is generated directly in the bottom and on the wall of the cookware. For the heat transfer to work properly, make sure you choose the right cookware and pots for induction.
Valued benefits of an induction hob
> Pots heat up faster than electric/glass ceramic hobs. Chefs and cooks appreciate the fast temperature rise and energy savings.
> Cooking surfaces will only heat up if a dish/pot is placed on them. The induction hob automatically switches off when the cookware/pot is removed.
> Improved safety. The likelihood of getting burnt on the induction hob is minimal. You can only burn yourself on the cookware. There is also a low chance of fire due to carelessness, for example, a cloth or protective glove placed close to the hob.
> The size of the heating surface, the induction hob adjusts according to the size of the pot being used. A large pot is therefore not a problem for the induction hob.
> The induction hob is easy to maintain and clean, saving time and the need to use different cleaning products. It is also a very elegant addition to the home.
> Thanks to the temperature retention function, the induction hob will keep food warm until serving time.
> Several induction hobs have a memorable temperature function, where you can switch off the cooking process and then restart it at the same temperature as before.
Which pots to choose for your induction hob
Induction hobs only react with iron or iron-containing cookware. You can easily use cookware with magnetic bottoms and insides, stainless steel cookware on the inside and on the outside. Cookware and pots suitable for induction are usually properly labelled or have a coil symbol. Alternatively, you can do a little test with a magnet, if the magnet sticks to the pot, the cookware is suitable for an induction cooktop.
