My hob ruins my pans

You are supposed to buy pans that are labelled suitable for induction hobs. Not all pans are suitable I’m afraid.

If I were you I would allow Mr Nanasam to do the frying, men rarely burn steaks as they are so keen on eating them!
Am sure others will be here soon with pan advice ?

I have Jamie Oliver saucepans and frying pan for induction jobs. They have lasted well. I think I bought them in John Lewis or Debenhams.

My pans are all suitable for induction hobs but I tried to complain about a Neverstick Scot-something make because it warped but they refused to do anything because they said I was using a too high a heat. Every Tefal pan I've bought has had the non-stick coating flake off even though they were advertised for induction. I chose my current saucepans with this in mind and got hard anodised coatings and have never put them on a high setting. The coating is coming off these, too. I wonder if I should use bog-standard stainless steel or cast iron - it's costing me a small fortune!

You need to spend quite a bit and buy the best Analon pans you can afford.
January sales could provide some good discounts.

How do you heat up the frying pans, Nanasam? Do you bring the heat up gradually or whack it on high power from the outset? We are supposed to do the former. Similarly, after use, never put cold water into a piping hot pan.
However, I put saucepans of water on high power from the outset and haven’t experienced any problems.

I have John Lewis frying pans and Wok, that I use on my induction hob. I’d recommend them great quality.

I don’t seem to have that problem. I use a cast iron pan to brown meat.
I’ve never heard of Analon pans. I don’t need any now but will try to remember the name if I ever do.

I bought a non stick Tefal frying pan (the one with the red dot in the middle) and it was supposed to be suitable for induction hobs, but it became so warped and twisted that there wasn't enough pan sitting on the hob to generate enough heat! I chucked that in the bin and bought a heavy weight frying pan from IKEA and after 2 years of frequent use, it's still like new. Brilliant value for money at about £15.

I have Tesco Go Cook pans. Very good solid bottoms. I have an induction hob and they work perfectly.
