Ceramic Pot On A Burner

Once a burner is turned on an electric current runs through the coil and generates a fluctuating magnetic field but no heat on the burner itself.

Ceramic pot on a burner.

Turn on the heat. I love that side element searing grill compared to my old grill which had the standard side burner. The side grate as two height settings. Add two tablespoons of baking soda and stir with a wooden spoon.

You are supposed to use the lower one grate close to ceramic element with pots and pans and the higher standoff when searing meats. If the magnet grabs the pan softly you may not have good success with it on your cooktop. An induction burner uses electromagnetic energy to directly heat your pots and pans. Wait for those telltale bubbles and for the water to begin boiling.

Then pour in one quart of water. Induction burners feature a ceramic plate with an electromagnetic coil beneath. Place the pot on the stove. Wait for it to boil.

Set the burner to medium heat. Never slide or scoot the pan or pot over the glass stove top or the ceramic cookware will scratch the surface ceramic cookware with grooves or textured bottoms may not cook evenly on glass topped stove tops because the burner requires direct glass to pan bottom contact to evenly distribute heat for cooking. If the magnet clings to the underside the cookware will work on an induction cooktop.
