Induction cooktops are becoming increasingly popular and are replacing traditional gas stoves. However, many people struggle with using induction cooktops because they don't understand which pots and pans are suitable and how induction cooking works. Let's learn more about it.
1. The principle of induction cooking:
Induction cooktops are more selective with cookware due to their operating principle. Not all pots and pans can be used on induction cooktops. You need to choose cookware made of ferromagnetic materials or with an induction-compatible bottom to use on induction cooktops. Induction cooktops are not efficient with single-bottom pots. It is recommended to use stainless steel pots with at least a double bottom for better efficiency.
2. How to use induction cooktops effectively?
Here are some common reasons why induction cooktops may not work:
Cookware material:
Cookware made of materials like stainless steel, cast iron, or stainless-steel-clad cookware can be used on induction cooktops as they can receive and transfer heat for cooking. Conversely, cookware made of glass, aluminum, or copper cannot be used on induction cooktops.
Uneven cookware bottom:
If the bottom of the cookware is warped or smaller than 10 cm in diameter, the induction cooktop may not be able to recognize it. In such cases, the generated heat may not be sufficient to heat up the cookware, resulting in low performance or even circuit malfunctions and hazards.
Faulty sensors or IC of the induction cooktop:
One of the reasons induction cooktops may not recognize cookware is due to faulty sensors or integrated circuits (IC) of the cooktop.
3. How to identify induction-compatible cookware?
Using a magnet:
You can use a magnet to identify induction-compatible cookware. Check the bottom of the pots, pans, or other cookware with a magnet. If the magnet strongly sticks to the bottom surface, then the cookware is suitable for induction cooktops.
