AJ Madison, the industry’s foremost appliance authority, is pleased to share the news that according to the National Resources Defense Council (NRDC), switching to induction cooking from gas-burning appliances, including ranges and cooktops, eliminates the release of methane gas into the environment. Induction cooktops are also consistently rated among Consumer Reports’ highest-rated appliances, with every model evaluated earning an excellent rating on the high-heat test, which measures how fast a cooktop can heat water. Nearly all induction cooktops also earn an excellent rating on the low-temperature test, important if a home cook is melting chocolate, or holding a pot of tomato sauce below a boil.
“I shock so many people with my love for induction because as a pro chef, most people automatically think I am going to love gas ranges more,” states Culinary Educator, Recipe Writer, and Food Content Creator, Saba Wahid. Wahid was the 2023 Finalist in Food Network’s Ciao House, and the 2020 winner of Chopped: Martha Rules Grand Champion. “I love cooking, but I hate cleaning. So, when I am at home, I want to have a smooth and efficient surface. I also love the precision of induction, going from zero to boil in 90 seconds is incredible. And being able to sear a steak or hold sauces and soups at potentially a warm plate function, with gas you still cannot get as low as you can with induction. Induction has so many incredible benefits and a lot of people are switching.”
Additional benefits of Induction cooking are that it is safer, and planet friendly with easy cleanup and installation. This is why induction is the fastest-growing cooking technology in the United States. AjMadison anticipates that the demand for induction will increase in the future as more consumers are learning about the benefits of this innovative technology. With induction, there is an electromagnetic reaction between the burner and the pot or pan itself. If there is no pot or pan on the burner, just turning the burner on will not generate any heat, safer for young children, aging family members, and pets. Within a few minutes of turning off an induction burner, both the pan and the burner become cooler quickly, making burns less likely. The key to making an induction cooktop or range work is to use a specific magnetic pot or pan to generate the electromagnetic reaction to cooking the food. Typically, this means using cast iron or magnetic stainless steel.
There is an induction fast-cooking product for every space and budget. Because of the rapid response of the electromagnetic cycle, one can shave up to 50 percent off the average cooking time. It generates less residual heat (any heat will be in the pot or pan and not come from the stovetop itself). This makes for less energy usage and lower electric bills. Induction also requires less ventilation, so it is a great solution for city dwellers, or homes where venting outside is not possible. Cleanup is also easier. The glass cooktop requires only a wipe down with a damp cloth and since the stove stays relatively cool throughout, food seldom sticks to it. For an even easier clean-up, one can place a towel under the cookware to catch splatter. This means the induction range or cooktop will look brand new for years to come. Finally, induction cooktops and ranges are easy to install. If one has an old electric range, it can be replaced with an induction model.
With AjMadison, one can shop over 200 induction ranges and cooktops on the company’s website representing over 30 different brands. Year to date, induction sales are up 34 percent from 2022.
