    Heat diffuser on an induction hob

    Getting a new induction hob installed this week but don't want to replace my favourite omelette pan or espresso maker.

    Anyone have an induction hob and use a metallic heat diffuser for non iron/steel pans?

    Any good? Any horror stories? Or should I just man up, buy new and stop treating this place like mumsnet.

    Ta.

    Buy new! any excuse to get some new cooking equipment.

    I had to say goodbye to some of my beloved copper pots and some pans I'd had for years when I switched to induction.

      Ta Nor,

      All the le cruisset stuff is fine and Neff have shipped some as part of the deal, it's just the non-stickiness of that one pan.

        Cook, cook, cook, cookability
        That's the beauty of gas.

          Also check out staub, way better than le creuset. My 3- ply saucepans and one cast iron casserole and my non stick pans are all Le creuset. Even though the pans are non stick I still season them with oil.

          I do miss cooking on gas but the fact the induction is sooooo easy to clean and pretty quick to heat up. I had to re-teach myself to cook certain things as it took a bit of working out what settings were better with induction.

          I got the bosch one, thankfully they had a kitchen place nearby that I could go and play with all the hobs before choosing one.
