<\/figure>As a sign of the times, an increasing number of cookware ranges are now induction compatible, however it might not be necessary to invest in new ones. Cast iron, steel plus enamel and some magnetic grade stainless steel pans will work on induction. This means that your beloved Le Creuset casseroles will be fine, as long as they are not made from stoneware.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
With Induction Your Cookware Retains Its Good Looks For Longer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Since induction is targeted heat on the base of your pans, you can say goodbye to unsightly scorching on the sides, which are hard to miss. Since the heat goes on and off at the push of a button, there\u2019s just less chance of your dish burning and every chance that it will be easier to clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Portable Induction Hobs \u2013 Just Plug In And Go<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Several brands are also doing portable induction hobs that you can simply plug in. Sleek and stylish, they also make perfect sense for smaller kitchens, rentals and for van life. Also, in the short term they offer a less costly reprieve from changing over your existing hobs (but caution as you will want to make that change). And when the time comes you may not need a full circuit upgrade.<\/p>\n<\/div> Consider the Tefal Everyday Slim Portable Induction Hob, which has six cooking functions including steam, soup, stir fry, boil, hot pot and frying. It\u2019s easy to clean and you can simply store it in a drawer when not using it or rest it against the wall. The surface cools down fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tefals\u2019 Dual Express Induction Hob has quick heating up to 240\u00b0C and 10 precise levels. It\u2019s suitable for induction pots and pans with a diameter from 12-24cm on the two hobs (for maximum heating efficiency, it\u2019s key that the cooking zone sizes match the base of your cookware), with separate controls and intuitive touch screen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This accessibility is smart when it comes to spreading the word about its benefits because once you start using induction, it\u2019s hard to return to your regular methods. They\u2019re just not responsive enough<\/p>\n\n\n\n If You\u2019re Addicted to Flames, Proceed To Your Barbecue<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The only downside is that while it\u2019s quick and easy to do a stir fry on an induction hob \u2013 it\u2019s not a practical choice for any dish that requires an open flame including charring and wok tossing. Induction cooking isn\u2019t dramatic enough to fire up your guests. But hey, if you\u2019re looking for that kind of dinner theatre, head outdoors to your barbecue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s Easy To Come Clean<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The other great advantage is that it\u2019s very easy to clean your cooktop. Forget about labouring away, trying to get rid of sauce splashes that have hardened on the surface. Simply wipe down with a ceramic glass cleaner and a microfibre cloth to have the cooktop sparkling again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Induction Cooking Saves Money On Energy Bills<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n According to consumer bible, Choice Magazine, \u201cyou\u2019ll also save on running costs with an induction cooktop, as they are definitely lower than with gas\u201d. Choice found that the yearly running costs for induction could be as low as $46 and as high as $80.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So what are you waiting for?
