What is an Induction Frying Pan? An Induction frying pan, also know as a magnetic fry pan are used on induction cooktops or any cooktop for that matter. Induction Cooktops do not heat up like conventional electric or gas cooktops.
Induction cooktops use what is called an induction hob instead of the traditional burners to cook the food. When turned on these induction hobs produce a magnetic field which reacts with magnetized cookware when placed on the hob. The pan immediately becomes hot in a second or two.
Frying Pan
If the cookware is not magnetic then it will not work at all. A simple way to see if the frying pan you own is induction-ready is to place a magnet on the bottom of it. If the magnet sticks to the bottom then you can use it on any induction cooktop.
Magnetic cookware is slowly going mainstream and prices can vary greatly from brand to brand. An induction frying pan can cost anywhere from to 0 each depending on the brand name.
Usually the higher priced fry is made better but is it worth the extra money? Some say yes, but let me tell you that the Chinese are producing some nice inexpensive induction fry pans and they are very cheap.
Chefs are finicky, some prefer to use only fry pans manufactured in countries such as France, Belgium or Germany while others could care less about the brand name and country it was made in. They are more concerned about getting good quality at a good price.
The best way to test the cheaper Chinese imports is to order one frying pan and check it out for yourself. When it arrives take a careful look at it and see if it is acceptable to you. Maybe boil some water in it to test it out. If you are happy with the pan then go ahead and order more pans from the same line.
If the pan does not meet your standards simply return it for a refund. Of course you may have to pay return shipping but if you choose a small pot or pan for the test then return shipping will be very inexpensive.
