Fire has been used for heating foods and liquids for scores of centuries. The gas stovetop offers some of the heating features that are linked to use of fire. The level of the flame can be controlled and placed at a whole range of levels. That is one of the advantages to cooking with gas, rather than electricity. Both of them heat the container being used to hold the cooked food or liquid, as well as the container’s contents. In addition, the heat from a burner on a stovetop will heat any object that gets close to it. If a dish that contains some metallic decorative work gets placed next to a working burner, the metal in that same dish will get hot. If someone touches that hot dish, they might get burned. Until now precautions and pot holders seemed like the only way to get around that particular problem. People knew about induction cooking, but few people were eager to try that alternate way of cooking food.

Other advantages linked to dependence on an induction cooktop

Water boils really fast. Fill a pot with water, start the induction cooktop, and the water boils in just 90 seconds. A hostess does not have to keep water steeping, so that it can be used to make a drink, such as coffee or tea. It becomes possible to simmer sauce incredibly gently. Sauces do not burn. The amount of heat delivered to the sauce can remain at an amazingly low level. While the cooking temperatures can be made lower, they can also be made much hotter. For cooks that want to prepare meat, the hotter temperatures make it easier to sear a cut of meat. The searing takes place faster. No dependence on a fuel. The appliance is dependent on a source of energy. The induction cooktop does have to be plugged into a source of electricity. The electricity gets the magnet in the burner moving. The movement of the magnet creates heat. Why so few consumers have chosen to buy an induction cooktop It only works with magnetic pans. It cannot be used if the cookware in the kitchen has copper, aluminum or non-magnetic stainless steel on the bottom. It would not work with a glass-bottomed pot. The biggest reason that so few customers are buying these new appliances relates to their high price. An induction cooktop costs about $2,000. Even businesses that make money by selling cooked food have felt reluctant to invest in something that cooks do not really need, in order to prepare a great meal.
