Ceramic Pot On A Burner

Set the burner to medium heat.

Ceramic pot on a burner.

The side grate as two height settings. An induction burner uses electromagnetic energy to directly heat your pots and pans. Pick a large enough burner and put the pot on the stove. Turn on the heat.

To tell if a pot or pan is compatible with your induction stove hold a magnet to the bottom. Never slide or scoot the pan or pot over the glass stove top or the ceramic cookware will scratch the surface ceramic cookware with grooves or textured bottoms may not cook evenly on glass topped stove tops because the burner requires direct glass to pan bottom contact to evenly distribute heat for cooking. Add two tablespoons of baking soda and stir with a wooden spoon. Then pour in one quart of water.

You can use the side burner with pots and pans. Once a burner is turned on an electric current runs through the coil and generates a fluctuating magnetic field but no heat on the burner itself. Wait for it to boil. I love that side element searing grill compared to my old grill which had the standard side burner.

Wait for those telltale bubbles and for the water to begin boiling. Induction burners feature a ceramic plate with an electromagnetic coil beneath. You are supposed to use the lower one grate close to ceramic element with pots and pans and the higher standoff when searing meats.
