Induction Cooking

Induction cooking is a very efficient method of cooking as it reduces heat loss between the pan and the atmosphere by as much as 40%. This makes it extremely energy efficient, as well as offering immediate heat-up, unlike traditional heating methods which require time to get to temperature.
The Induction cooker works by creating a magnetic field within suitable cookware, which causes an instant build-up of heat to cook the food.
This appliance is intended to be used for commercial applications, for example in kitchens of restaurants, canteens, hospitals and in commercial enterprises such as bakeries, butcheries, etc. but not for continuous mass production of food.
Induction hobs can make a variety of noises for different reasons. Crackling and whistling noises are often due to the construction of the pan or any utensil in it. Quiet humming noises are due to the induction technology and are completely normal. The cooling fans for the electronics may also be heard.

Cookware

Suitable cookware includes:

• All magnetic pans such as Vogue Stainless Steel or Triwall pans.
• Mild steel or plain steel (black iron) pans
• Enamelled/non-enamelled cast iron and iron pans
• Cookware diameter: 12cm – 20cm Unsuitable cookware includes:
• Cookware with a diameter less than 12cm
• Ceramic or glass cookware
• Stainless steel with no/weak magnetism, aluminium, bronze or copper cookware unless marked as suitable for induction cooking
• Cookware with feet
• Cookware with a rounded bottom (e.g. wok)
