Can an earthenware pot with a foot on the bottom also be used on a radiant cooktop (highlight)?
This is a situation where someone is looking to purchase a new earthenware pot for a kitchen that uses a radiant cooktop (highlight). They want to check whether it is okay to place an earthen pot on the ceramic glass surface, and if there are restrictions based on the shape of the bottom.
Products with a raised foot on the bottom that creates a gap with the cooktop surface cannot be used on a radiant cooktop because heat is not transferred properly.
If the bottom is flat, it touches; if it has a foot, it floats. A radiant cooktop is a heat source where the bottom of the vessel must directly touch the glowing red cooktop glass for heat to be transferred into the vessel.
Among Igamono tableware, products with a foot on the bottom cannot be used on radiant cooktops[1][2][3]. This is because if the bottom surface is lifted into the air by the height of the foot, the heat coming from the heating element cannot completely penetrate the bottom of the earthenware pot.
You need to turn it over and look. If you plan to cook by placing the earthenware pot on a radiant cooktop, you must first check whether the entire bottom of the vessel has a flat finish so that it makes close, gapless contact with the heating surface.
hmmm, unlike gas stoves where flames rise up, with electric heating appliances that require close contact with the cooktop surface, the contact area of the bottom essentially determines the size of the fire.
The appropriate heat level or recommended cooking time when using a flat earthenware pot without a foot on a radiant cooktop has not yet been confirmed.
