What is Induction Cooking?
Welcome to NuWave Precision Induction Cooking
Congratulations on purchasing your NuWave PIC. This book contains detailed
instructions and images to help you get started using your Cooktop. It is also
filled with great recipes and time-saving tips to help you prepare delicious
gourmet meals in a fraction of the time it would take when using a regular
stovetop. Cooking is fast and easy with the NuWave Precision Induction Cooktop
from Hearthware, Inc. This versatile countertop appliance uses induction
technology to save time, energy and money. The NuWave Precision Induction
Cooktop is efficient, safe, fast and easy to clean. And because you can program
times and temperatures from warm to sear, you can make almost any kind of
food without the risk of under or overcooking.
The NuWave PIC is comprised of a series of induction coils (based on magnetic
principles). These coils generate magnetic fields that produce a warming reaction
in steel and iron-based pots and pans. In this way, heat is generated in the
cookware and not on the cooktop surface, which is much more energy-efficient
than traditional gas or electric ranges. Induction cooking is the most eco-
friendly way to prepare meals because the method releases no toxins into the
environment. Induction cooking emits no flame, so less residual heat is produced
in your kitchen. The NuWave Precision Induction Cooktop remains cool to the
touch where the magnetic surface is not activated.
Additional Benefits:
•
Energy Conservation: By using only 1300 watts, the NuWave PIC conserves
up to 90% of the energy wasted by traditional gas or electric stovetops. The
monthly savings on utility bills alone will pay for the appliance.
•
Safety: The NuWave PIC’s design requires no coils or open flame,
eliminating the risk of fire. Automatic shut-off features enhance the cooktop’s
safety. Simply set it and forget it! Users can also take the ice cube challenge!
Induction technology warms the pan, but the PIC surface remains cool to the
touch.
