Helpful hints and tips
IMPORTANT!
INDUCTION COOKING
Induction cooking uses a strong electromagnetic field to
induce energy into the metal of the cookware. This energy
makes the cookware become hot.
Cookware for induction cooking
IMPORTANT!
It is important to use cookware that is appropriate
for induction cooking. When purchasing cookware
always check the manufacturer’s specifications.
Cookware material
•
Correct:
cast iron, steel, enamelled steel, stainless
steel, the bottom made of multi-layer.
•
Not correct:
aluminium, copper, brass, glass,
ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction hob if...
•
some water boils very quickly on a zone set to the
highest heat setting.
•
a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the cookware.
•
The bottom of the cookware must be as thick and
flat as possible.
Use of the cooking zones
IMPORTANT
Always ensure the normal sized cookware is
centred over the crosses of the heating zones.
Extremely large cookware however cook on two
cooking zones at the same time.
ENVIRONMENT!
Energy saving
•
If possible, always put the lids on the cookware.
•
Put cookware on a cooking zone before you start it.
•
Use the residual heat to keep the food warm or to
melt it.
•
Do not use cookware where the base diameter is
smaller than 125mm.
Eco timer
Whenever the countdown timer is used the heat setting
will deactivate before the final countdown time is reached.
Residual heat left in the cookware will complete the final
stage of cooking and hence some energy is saved.
The difference in the operation time depends on the heat
setting level and the length of the cooking operation.
