Cooking by induction

What is induction cooking?

Induction cooking constitutes a radical change in the traditional form of heating, given that the heat is generated directly in the pan, keeping the cooking surfa cold. Therefore, it has a number of advantages over other cooking methods:

Greater speed in cooking and frying As the pan is heated directly and not the glass, the efficiency is greater than systems because no heat is lost.
