A Guide to Hobs in the UK
A hob is an appliance in the kitchen that is fitted into a cutout in the worktop. It can be gas or electric and can have one to six cooking rings or zones. Its design is modern and is easy to clean.
The market is flooded with smart hobs that can be integrated with home automation systems and offer different options for customization. They also are looking to improve hygiene and cut down on energy consumption.
Induction hobs
Induction hobs, which are stylish and efficient are a popular choice for modern kitchens. Induction hobs, as opposed to gas and electric models that rely on heating plate to heat cookware directly make use of electromagnetic technology to heat the pan. Underneath the glass ceramic surface are coils that an alternating current runs through. When a pan that is compatible is placed on the cooking zone the coils create a magnetic field that interacts with the metal inside the pan, generating electrical currents and creating heat. Induction hobs are more energy-efficient than traditional hobs, and they are also easier to clean.
Induction hobs also come with an easier-to-use design. The top of the appliance features an entire TFT display that can be used to control it. It shows what cookware is currently in use, and what power setting you have selected. The control panel can be locked to prevent accidental pressing of buttons. Many induction hobs feature a boost feature that can increase the power of the cooking zone for a short time. This is useful to quickly bring the water in a pot to a boil, or heating a pan to sear.
Many induction hobs have frames that are not visible, and the glass-ceramic surface seamlessly incorporated into the countertop. Some induction hobs are available in different colors to match the decor of your kitchen. They often also have minimalist, sleek controls that have indicator lights that indicate the power level and other functions.
To maximize the benefits of your induction hob you will need to use induction-compatible cookware. If you're interested in knowing whether a pan is compatible on an induction stove, run an iron over its base. If the magnet adheres to it, then it is compatible. To ensure that you don't overuse energy Induction hobs often have pan detection that only activates the coils when a compatible pan is available.
Induction hobs are a great choice for shared homes or student accommodation as they do not have an open flame. They are also more secure than gas versions. However, they do produce an eerie ticking or humming sound during operation that can disturb some people.
Gas hobs
Gas hobs utilize natural gas or the liquefied gas that is used to heat your cookware. They are ideal for many cooking techniques. They provide precise temperature control, and are quicker to heat up than electric alternatives such as ceramic hobs. They can sometimes be a bit dirty to clean with burner caps and wok stands needing to be removed regularly to make sure that everything is clean.
Modern gas hobs typically use electronic ignition systems that use an electric spark or continuous electric flame to light the burners and begin the combustion process. Then, they employ electrical components like switches and sensors to control the flow of gas through the system and to make sure that the burners work properly. The burners can also include several control knobs to adjust the intensity of the flame as well as the heat output.
Based on the model you select, gas hobs have anywhere between one and six burners. Consider the dimensions of your pans when deciding this number, as you'll need to make sure that there are enough burners for all cookware you intend to use. If you frequently stir-fry, choose a model with a wok burn. Some models also have griddle elements that are built-in to make tasty and quick breakfast or lunch.
A major consideration when choosing a gas hob is the cost of running it. Gas hobs generally have lower initial purchase prices than induction hobs, but operating costs can vary widely according to your local gas rates and usage patterns. Gas hobs require natural gas supply, and ventilation. This can lead to higher installation costs than an induction or electric hob.
Vented hobs integrate two appliances into one unit which saves space while giving your kitchen a more modern appearance. They draw steam and smoke through a duct located on the surface of the stove and allow for a more efficient operation than traditional hoods.
Portable hobs
A portable hob is a great option if you need more space in your kitchen or wish to cook outside. They are designed to be placed on the kitchen worktop and plug in, so they're a breeze to use and carry with you when you want to cook elsewhere. They are also helpful if you need to renovate your kitchen, or need more space for your hob in busy times.
Induction hobs are becoming more popular in both home and professional kitchens because they're fast and safe, energy efficient, and easy to clean. They work by creating a magnetic coil that has an electrical current running through it, which then heats the pan that you place on top. There is no wasted heat like there is with a gas hob or electric [hob](https://www.ovensandhobs.uk/). This can help you save money.
This Belling hob comes with dual cooking zones and double ring design so can be used to cook many different pots and pans. Its intuitive interface and great heat distribution mean it was the most popular choice for test participants, who also found the ability to easily alter the temperature of the two zones helpful. The only issue was that it took over 12 minutes to boil 1 litre of water which could be frustrating for those with a tight schedule.
This model from Smeg is a good choice for those looking for a compact alternative. It's lightweight and thin - less than half the size of the other models on this list, making it easy to store away when not in use. Its brushed-finish looks more expensive and is more easy to clean than hobs that have a more polished finish.
It's important to remember that while these hobs are an ideal alternative to full-sized ones however, they're still hot and can cause burns. For this reason, we suggest careful handling and judicious positioning, keeping the plug far away from children and away from areas where someone could slip over it. The majority of models also come with an option for children's locks which is a helpful feature to think about if you have kids.
