Proper use of induction vessels

Proper use of induction vessels - Top View of Paints in Old Tanks

I accidentally bought a set of induction vessels. Currently I have a gas cooking range. Can induction vessels be used on a regular gas stove or electric stove?



Best Answer

Induction cookware is only that which has enough steel or iron in it to have a magnet stick to it. As was mentioned in the comment, it is usually the other way around. Stainless steel and cast iron are great for cooking on most any type stove top... Or a grill or a campfire! They are the epitome of versatility.

How do you use induction cookware?

Induction cooking surfaces work well with any pans with a high ferrous metal content at the base. Cast iron pans and any black metal or iron pans will work on an induction cooking surface. Stainless steel pans will work on an induction cooking surface if the base of the pan is a magnetic grade of stainless steel.

What vessels can be used for induction?

The answer is simple: If a utensil is made using a magnetic material (i.e., it supports a magnetic field, which is the way to heat an induction cooktop cookware), it is induction compatible. This means that any cookware that does not have a magnet will not work with induction cooktops.

How do you know if a vessel can be used on induction?

A piece of good news is that all cookware that is induction friendly can be used on electric and gas stoves. Copper, aluminum, and glass will not work on induction as the magnetic field will not be able to pass and there will be no generation of electric current in the cookware.

Answer 2

Yes, the induction vessels will work with the gas. The only problem I believe is the tough stains that remains in the vessel is we constantly use them in high heat in gas.
