A Word on Induction Cooking

Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, efficient, and economical cooking technology. Unlike traditional cooking methods, induction cooking works by generating heat directly in the pan through electromagnetic vibrations. This means that the glass surface of the hob remains relatively cool, as it only heats up indirectly through contact with the hot pan. This technology ensures precise and fast cooking results.

Before using your New Hob
Before using your new hob, it is important to familiarize yourself with the touch controls. The controls are sensitive and require a direct touch to operate properly. Ensure that the controls are free from any obstructions (such as water droplets or dirt) that may hinder their functionality. Even a thin film of water can make the controls difficult to operate.

Choosing the right Cookware
When using an induction hob, it is essential to choose the right cookware. Induction cooking requires cookware that is compatible with magnetic fields. To determine if your cookware is suitable for induction cooking, you can perform a simple magnet test. Hold a magnet near the base of the pan, and if it is attracted to the pan, it indicates that the cookware is induction- compatible.

Cooking Guidelines

Take care when frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly, particularly if you’re using Boost. At extremely high temperatures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously and this presents a serious fire risk.

Cooking Tips

• When food comes to the boil, reduce the power setting.

• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.

• Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.

• Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the food has heated through.
  Simmering, cooking rice · Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 85°C, when bubbles are just rising occasionally to the surface of the cooking liquid. It is the key to delicious soups and tender stews because the flavours develop without overcooking the food. You should also cook egg-based and flourthickened sauces below boiling point.

• Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method, may require a setting higher than the lowest setting to ensure the food is cooked properly in the time recommended.

Searing steak To cook juicy flavoursome steaks:

1. Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.
2. Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.
3. Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small amount of oil into the hot pan and then lower the meat onto the hot pan.
4. Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of the steak and how cooked you want it. Times may vary from about 2 ­ 8 minutes per side. Press the steak to gauge how cooked it is ­ the firmer it feels the more `well done’ it will be.
5. Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to relax and become tender before serving.

For stir-frying

1. Choose a ceramic compatible flat-based wok or a large frying pan.
2. Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying should be quick. If cooking large quantities, cook the food in several smaller batches.
3. Preheat the pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.
4. Cook any meat first, put it aside and keep warm.
5. Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn the cooking zone to a lower setting, return the meat to the pan and add your sauce. 6. Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated through.
6. Serve immediately.
