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.

The following is included:

• Induction heater
