Information for anyone planning a new kitchen - I love, love, LOVE my new induction hob! It really is as good as gas in terms of speed and controllability, and because the hob itself doesn't get hot, it's easy to keep clean without strong acids. Apparently induction uses about
30% less energy than standard electric hobs, so greener too.In fact I only have one regret. I was a little hesitant at the design stage so I went for a domino two ring induction hob paired with a three ring halogen hob. I now wish that I'd chosen at least 3 induction rings and two halogens (the latter for making gravy in the roasting pan or using other non-magnetic vessels).
I am a keen and enthusiastic amateur cook (a wannabe Nigella, though [alas] insufficiently well endowed between navel and shoulder...); this endorsement is meaningful, and entirely independent!
