True, but there's a simple fix: replace that one or two ancient pans that you still have hanging around.
Makes sense, but also no
(we have a standard flat top and a separate induction hahaha)
I'm curious how cast iron pans work with induction. I feel like I'd be constantly afraid of scratching/breaking the glass on top.
It's not really an issue if you are somewhat careful. Don't slam the pan onto the glass, don't scratch it across and don't instant-heat the pan on full power (it can damage the pan).
If you want to be extra careful you can even put a thin piece of heat-proof fabric between the induction stove and the pan. Since induction heats the pan and not the stove top, that won't hurt the heat transmission.
Cooks great. I just started so don’t have scratches yet but I’m sure they’re coming.
Someone online recommended parchment paper Nader the pan to keep it from scratching, but that seems like a pain
But now I’m worried just as much about my few remaining non-stick pans I just tried one for the first time on my new induction stove and it wouldn’t stay 8n place. Between the lightweight aluminum and the smooth glass stove top, every time I tried to flip an egg the pan moved
