Cleaning is easy enough thanks to the removable pan supports and stainless steel finish. Should your pan of water boil over or your sauce splash as it starts to rapidly heat, just wait for it all to cool down then wipe with a damp cloth.

We also loved the Keep Warm option, which will regulate the temperature of your food so it doesn’t cook further but is kept hot until ready. And if you feel you’ll miss the glow of the gas flame, Virtual Flame Technology™ uses LEDs to reproduce a real gas glow – a nice little extra touch. If you’re choosing gas, place it away from a window as any draughts can extinguish flames. It is also dangerour to lean over any hob to open a window. Getting A Good Deal

Do Carbon Steel Woks Work on Induction Hobs?

While there are four cooking zones, one of these is an extra large rectangular space. It is split into two but designed to accommodate larger pans or grill devices. Both sections can be used simultaneously. No more having to centralise foods in the pan to get the heat or cook in batches. These appliances generally hover around the 60 cm width mark, but they can go up to 90 cm too. If you aren’t fitting a new kitchen, then you will need to take into account the dedicated space which already exists. Sliding controls give you an incredibly modern experience. Using the touch screen, simply turn the chosen hob on and then turn up the heat. Reducing the temperature is easy when the time comes, too. It can also detect a pan when in place, so if you just press the temperature control, it knows that’s the one to turn on.

There is a FlexZone+ area, a zone which you can make larger to accommodate big pans such as woks or long frying pans which otherwise wouldn’t fit. It is also great for smaller milk pans or those little single frying egg pans, as it will also go smaller too. You will also make use of the Low Temperature setting, which is ideal for melting butter and chocolate or preparing sauces without risk of burning.

They also work a bit differently to other options. The actual hob surface doesn’t heat up, but rather the base of the pan thanks to magnetism technology. You could even be boiling water faster than with a kettle! It makes it a very energy efficient option as no heat is wasted, and the risk of burns or heat damage is reduced. Thanks to the design of this gas hob, it has never been easier to use all of the burners at the same time.
