Which pots for induction to choose?

Cooking on induction has become a daily routine in many Polish kitchens. No wonder, the induction hob is fast, energy-efficient, and safe. However, to fully exploit its potential, the right cookware is needed. In this article, we'll explore how to choose the best pots for induction and which sets are worth buying!

How to Recognize if a Pot is Suitable for Induction?

Cooking with induction requires the use of pots that react to the magnetic field generated by the induction hob. Not every vessel is suitable for this type of cooker, so it is worth knowing what to look for before purchasing.

Ferromagnetic Bottom

The basis of induction operation is the reaction between the hob and the ferromagnetic material found in the bottom of the pot. In practice, this means that the pot must contain stainless steel or iron, as only these metals conduct the magnetic field in a way that allows heating. In Ambition induction pots, we use a capsule bottom with a ferromagnetic core, which guarantees full compatibility with induction hobs of any brand.

Labels and Symbols

Every Ambition pot that can be used on induction has a clear marking of the induction coil symbol on the bottom of the vessel. Additionally, the packaging provides information on compatibility with different types of cookers: gas, electric, ceramic, and induction. It's also important to remember that induction hobs require full contact of the bottom with the heating surface, therefore Ambition pots have a perfectly flat base, which prevents energy loss and guarantees even heating.

What to Consider When Choosing Pots for Induction?

Below are the key criteria that are worth analyzing carefully before purchase. Choosing the right induction pots is an investment for years, so it is worthwhile to pay attention not only to their appearance or price but primarily to functionality, durability, and suitability for the type of cooker. Appropriate pots will ensure fast and even cooking, energy savings, and daily usage comfort.

  • Compatibility with the induction hob: pots must have a ferromagnetic bottom and be clearly labeled as 'for induction'.
  • Multilayer bottom and solid construction: it is important for the bottom to conduct heat well and be evenly heated (which is significant on induction).
  • Material and coating: stainless steel or aluminum with a solid non-stick coating is a very good choice.
  • Lid and handles: a tempered glass lid allows cooking control, convenient handles minimize the risk of burns.
  • Versatility: the ability to use on various types of cookers (induction, electric, gas) and possibly in the oven is a great convenience.
  • Design and aesthetics: since the pots are to serve for years, they should fit well into the kitchen interior.
