Advantages of a Portable induction Hob

Heat is transferred directly from the coil to cooking utensils placed on top. However, the hob's surface remains cool. Liquid and food placed on the plate do not burn and so cleaning is made much easier. A cool surface and the absence of flame means the cooking area is kept safe.

Some hobs have the added benefit of an overflow prevention system which turns off the cooking area when liquid is on the control area. Some models will turn off automatically when left on for too long.

Portable induction hobs are incredibly energy efficient. Heat is transferred directly onto the cooking plate with minimum loss elsewhere. This also means that meals are cooked quickly. 

The portable induction cooktop also offers additional functionality such as adaptable cooking zones that can be combined to suit your needs. For example, one model has 8 independent inductors, controlled by an ingenious display system allowing them to be used separately and at the same time. This adaptability allows any chef to customise their kitchen to suit their needs, even on a dish-by-dish basis.
