Ceramic Pot On A Burner

Wait for those telltale bubbles and for the water to begin boiling.

Ceramic pot on a burner.

You are supposed to use the lower one grate close to ceramic element with pots and pans and the higher standoff when searing meats. Then pour in one quart of water. Wait for it to boil. Set the burner to medium heat.

I love that side element searing grill compared to my old grill which had the standard side burner. The side grate as two height settings. Never slide or scoot the pan or pot over the glass stove top or the ceramic cookware will scratch the surface ceramic cookware with grooves or textured bottoms may not cook evenly on glass topped stove tops because the burner requires direct glass to pan bottom contact to evenly distribute heat for cooking. Turn on the heat.

If the magnet grabs the pan softly you may not have good success with it on your cooktop. Pick a large enough burner and put the pot on the stove. Induction burners feature a ceramic plate with an electromagnetic coil beneath. You can use the side burner with pots and pans.

Add two tablespoons of baking soda and stir with a wooden spoon. To tell if a pot or pan is compatible with your induction stove hold a magnet to the bottom. Place the pot on the stove.
