Induction cooking

Recently, Woot had induction hotplates for $50. I bought one, and am amazed at how well it works. I use AllClad pots, that work with induction ranges.

I filled two identical pots with two cups of cold water. The induction "burner" came to a vigorous boil in five minutes. The one on the gas stove, with the burner on full, took just over eight minutes.

I just wish the full range tops weren't so expensive.

Induction cooking

An induction cooker is faster and more energy-efficient than a traditional electric cooking surface. It allows instant control of cooking energy similar to gas burners.
