Introduction to Induction How does induction work? An induction cooktop holds a series of burners called induction coils (based on mag- netic principles). These coils generate magnetic fi elds that induct a warming reaction in steel and iron-based pots and pans. This way, the cookware itself heats the food, not the cooktop surface. What are the benefi ts of cooking with an induction cooktop? EFFICIENT: Induction cooking is the most eco-friendly and energy-effi cient way to cook. Induction cookto

ENGLISH What type of cookware can I use on Induction? Since Induction is based on magnetic principles, the cookware used on it must have a ferrous (iron-based, magnetic) bottom. Some types of cookware are made of naturally magnetic metals (such as pure iron), while others are made to be magnetic by “sand- wiching” a thin layer of a ferrous metal in the base. This layer in the base is what will be affected by the magnetic fi eld of the induction cooktop and distribute the heat. Gener- ally spea

Introducción a la inducción ¿Cómo funciona la inducción? Una placa de inducción contiene unos quemadores llamados bobinas de inducción (basados en principios magnéticos). Estas bobinas generan campos magnéticos que inducen una reacción de calor en sartenes y cacerolas de base ferro-magnética. De esta manera, es la olla la que calienta la comida, no la superfi cie de cristal de la placa. sartén placa bobinas de inducción ¿Cuáles son los benefi cios de cocinar con una placa de inducción?

ESPAÑOL ¿Qué tipo de ollas puedo usar en una Inducción? Dado que la inducción está basada en principios magnéticos, las ollas y sartenes que use en ella deben tener una base ferrítica (que contenga hierro). Algunos tipos de ollas y sartenes están hechos de metales magnéticos por naturaleza (como el hierro puro), mientras que otros se magnetizan añadiendo una fi na lámina de metal ferrítico a la base de la olla. Esta lámina en la base es la que se verá afectada por el campo magnético de la pl
