Induction Ranges

The term “induction range” is a way of referring to a stove with an induction cooktop. While the word “range” refers to the whole appliance (the induction cooktop and oven), the cooktop is the only part of the appliance that uses induction technology.

Because of the way induction cooking works, it can be more efficient than other methods for cooking food. Rather than using a hot burner to heat slowly heat up a pot or pan, induction technology uses electromagnetic fields to heat up your food directly. This efficient process can lead to faster and more evenly dispersed heat, and, it is better for the environment than using a traditional gas cooktop.

To pick the best induction range for your kitchen, start by measuring the space you have. Be mindful of other appliances in your kitchen, like your refrigerator and dishwasher, and how your new range would fit in with them. Then, consider how many burners and ovens you want. Most home kitchens feature 4-burner induction ranges, but there are options all the way up to 8-burner induction ranges. Finally, think about the features you might use and make a list of your priorities so that you can choose accordingly while staying within your budget.

To use your electric induction range, you will need induction-friendly cookware. Luckily, many refutable cookware brands offer induction-compatible options to suit various cooking needs. And, a lot of pots and pans already fall into this category. For example, cast iron pans are safe to use on an induction range.

How you use your induction stove and oven will also depend on the kind of oven you choose for your induction oven range. Many customers opt for an convection cooking induction ranges. Convection ovens use a fan and exhaust system to circulate the heat, creating an even temperature throughout the oven. This is particularly beneficial for various types of baking.

If you’ve ever wondered how a convection oven is unique, it all comes down to the technology. Like induction, convection technology can also lead to faster cook times. Convection temperature settings and cook times will also differ slightly from conventional ones. So, you will want to convert certain recipes that are intended for conventional single wall ovens accordingly.
