Can aluminum utensils be used in this
The biggest problem while buying an induction cooktop is regarding the utensils. Only those utensils which have a special type of base work on induction. That’s why many times people have to buy induction utensils separately. But this is not the case with infrared cooktop.
The biggest convenience of infrared cooktop is that almost all types of utensils can be used in it.
Which utensils can be used?
- aluminum utensils
- steel utensils
- copper utensils
- iron utensils
That means, if you already have utensils used on gas in your house, then the same will work on the infrared cooktop as well. However, one thing to keep in mind is that infrared cooktop can consume slightly more electricity than induction. The reason for this is that radiant heat is used in it, due to which it takes a little more time to heat up and cool down. But in terms of price, sometimes it is cheaper than induction, hence it is considered a good option.
