Q: QuestionWhat does induction mean?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Hello, Induction cooking is a method of cooking that uses a copper coil underneath the cooking surface to generate electromagnetic energy. This energy transfers directly to your cookware to make it hot enough to cook food. While induction cooktops and ranges may look like a traditional cooktop or range, the way they generate heat to cook food is entirely different. So how does an induction cooktop work differently? A copper coil under the cooktop creates electromagnetic energy. This magnetic energy interacts directly with induction-compatible cookware to make it hot. Because induction skips the step of heating the cooktop, it’s a fast and even cooking method.
