In the heart of Singapore’s culinary evolution, induction cooker hobs stand as the standard in most modern home kitchens, transforming the cooking experience with their ingenious design and unparalleled efficiency. Beneath the sleek glass surface of these hobs lies a hidden coil that produces a magnetic field. The magic happens when you place a pot or pan made of magnetic material on it, as the magnetic field induces electric currents within the cookware, generating heat directly in the pot or pan.

With minimal energy waste and the surface of the cooker remaining remarkably cool, the risk of burns is significantly reduced. For those accustomed to the impatience of modern living, the speed at which these hobs heat up is a game-changer, eliminating the frustration of enduring prolonged waits for water to boil.

So what’s the difference between the various types of cooker hobs?

Induction hobs offer efficient and rapid heating through electromagnetism, inducing electric currents in magnetic cookware for precise temperature control. Their cool-to-touch surface enhances safety, and the sleek design ensures easy cleaning. With faster heating times compared to traditional stoves, induction hobs provide an environmentally friendly and versatile cooking experience.

The gas stove hob, powered by natural gas or propane, utilizes an open flame for immediate and precise temperature control, transferring heat directly to cookware that can withstand direct flame contact. Despite its excellent control, the open flame poses a burn risk. Yet, its visibility enhances safety awareness in the culinary environment. Gas stoves, however, can heat up significantly more than electric or induction hobs and are still favoured for many cooking methods.

The electric stove hob, using either coils or a glass-ceramic surface, generates heat, transferring it to cookware through direct contact or radiant heat. While slower to adjust temperatures than gas and induction stoves, modern electric models offer improved control. Compatible with any heatable cookware, flat-bottomed types are recommended for optimal heat transfer. Caution is advised as the stove’s surface can get hot, posing a burn risk as it is not visibly apparent, and is less safe than induction hobs.

It’s these specific details that make induction cookers the preferred hob among Singapore’s home cooks. So without further ado, let’s hop into some of the best induction cooker hobs available in Singapore.
