Induction cooking is a cooking method that uses a copper coil under the cooking surface to generate electromagnetic energy. This energy is transferred directly into your cookware, heating it sufficiently to cook the food.
Enamelled kitchenware cooking group products are also suitable for induction cookers.
The most important reason for this is that enamelled pans and pots have a magnetisable iron core that heats the bottom and walls extremely quickly.
INDUCTION COOKING WITH ENAMELLED COOKING POTS
Emayeci brand enamelled cookware is particularly energy-efficient. It uses more than 97% of the hob’s power output. This reduces energy consumption by up to 30%.
Induction hobs therefore heat enamelled cookware extremely quickly. In the case of enamel (a material made of glass and iron), glass and iron expand differently when heated. It is therefore important not to start at the highest heat so that both materials heat up evenly.
Nevertheless, it heats up faster than a conventional hob, which prevents the bottoms of pots and pans from bending. To prevent this from happening, our test kitchen has put together the most important information about induction cooking.
Important Notes on Enamelled and Induction Cooking
Observe the operating instructions for the hob with regard to the power output of the switching stages.
Here are some guide values:
Boiling water at 100°C = 500 Watt
Frying at 180°C = approx. 1,700 watts
Never heat empty cookware.
Make sure that the diameter of your cookware and the hob match as closely as possible.
Always start with a small power output and increase step by step to the desired power output. NEVER use the boost function (except for liquid quantities larger than 6 litres)
Constantly monitor the cooking process. The automatic switch-off of the temperature sensors often does not react quickly enough in the event of too rapid heating.
Do not touch the glass ceramic area of the cooking chamber after cooking. It may become very hot due to the heated cooker base.
** The given values may not be suitable for every enamelled kitchen product. Therefore, you can determine a temperature range by trying the given values yourself.
