Gas Hob versus Induction Hob

Does anyone know if Pyroflam products can be used on an induction hob? I have a large casserole dish which I previously used on a gas hob and in the oven. I am reluctant to try it on my new hob. I'm astonished to find that this same casserole dish is £66 on Amazon and I know I didn't pay anything like that when I bought it, maybe as long as a decade ago.

I had gas for years and it damaged my quality pans because the flame occasionally licked up the sides, but I liked the rapid controllability compared to electric hobs.

However I used an induction hob when away and was instantly converted. One word of warning. When we converted to the induction hob our electric wiring wasn’t high enough wattage, and we had to have a dedicated cable from fuse box fitted. Cost much more than the hob!

When we had a new kitchen fitted last year, a new induction hob was fitted.
However, I don't think it's a particularly good model.
You can only use two hobs at full heat, the third hob up to heat number 2, and fourth hob unable to use. When first two hobs have heated sufficiently for the veg to boil, you can turn them down and gradually increase temperature of the other two hobs. Gradually you are able to use all 4 hobs at simmering temperatures.
This is only a problem on Sundays, when cooking a roast, with lots of veg. But make sure you buy a high quality brand name. I wish we had, but trusted the kitchen fitter.

Ann, try a magnet. If it sticks, it will probably be ok!!

libra10 We were told that would happen if we didn’t renew the wiring which wasn’t high enough wattage to cope.
The hob itself may not be at fault. Just a thought.

Thank you @Farzanah We wondered about that.

We weren't too happy with the electrician employed to do the kitchen fitting. He placed a light switch socket too near a door, and the sockets for the fridge and freezer behind a plinth, which you have to take off each time these appliances need defrosting.
He did actually do some new wiring, but possibly not as a high a wattage as needed.

Thanks kitty. I son't think the pot has any metal in it, but if I can find a magnet, it's worth a try!

We switched from gas to induction when we moved 18 months ago. It didn't take long to get used to the induction, though I still haven't mastered custard!

We have three induction hobs in the family. Mine has a magnetic knob that I have to spin to change temperature - it's OK but fiddly and has to be in just the right place.

DS and DIL have one where you change temp by pressing on a space - it's OK.

DD and SIL have one with a row of numbers for each area of the hob. It is by far the easiest of the three to manage.

Good luck with your search!
