A Guide to the best hob Hobs in the UK

A hob is an oven that is separate from a cooker. A cooker is a freestanding unit that includes both a hob and an oven.

Malignant - and possibly mischievous - sprites of the countryside, Hobs were often combined with Goblin to create the Hobgoblin.

Gas Hobs

A well-built hob is essential in modern kitchens. There's a range of hobs to fit every budget and style whether you're a fan of ceramic gas, induction, or ceramic. A high-quality hob will heat quickly and evenly, allowing you to cook your food in a flash. It also adds sleekness to the kitchen.

One of the key benefits of a gas stove is the precise temperature control. It is quick to reach temperatures that are high which makes it ideal for searing meat, boiling water, and stirring-frying vegetables. Its ability to adjust its heat output quickly is ideal for delicate dishes or sauces that require low temperatures.

Gas hobs are also energy efficient. Gas is cheaper than electricity and hobs can be used to power hobs. It also uses a direct flame for heating your utensils. This means there is less energy wasted around the burner edges.

Modern gas hobs are designed with a sleek appearance to match any kitchen design. You can find models with a shiny black or stainless steel finish that will blend in seamlessly and make your kitchen appear more modern. Alternatively, you can choose a glass ceramic model that is easy to clean and highly durable.

Gas hobs are a common choice for modern kitchens because of their versatility and convenience. They also work well with traditional kitchen designs, especially when you incorporate a range cooker in your kitchen layout. It is important to keep in mind that they can increase the risk of fire when compared to electric or induction hobs. They do not have safety features, such as being able to switch off instantly and having child-safety locks on the control knobs.

When it comes to choosing gas hobs you must take into consideration the number of burners and cooking zones you need. There are models that have one or two cooking zones. Many models also come with a central wok burner, which is a powerful burner that is suitable for rapid boiling or stir-frying. You should also verify the type of ignition system you are using. Most gas hobs use an electric spark or a continuous electric pilot flame to ignite the burners.

Induction Hobs

While gas hobs remain popular with home cooks Induction cookers are growing in popularity due to their efficiency and speed. These flat glass-topped hobs use magnetism to heat the contents of a pan, rather than heating the surface, which makes them more efficient, and more secure since there isn't a flame beneath. Induction hobs come with many options, including some that our Good Housekeeping Institute experts have found can be particularly beneficial.

One of them is the bridge function which lets you join two hob rings to fit larger pans. You can also regulate the temperature of each ring separately via the touchscreen panel. This is a great option for those who love to entertain and can be a lifesaver if you have guests that have special dietary requirements. It is important to note that induction hobs aren't suitable for those who have pacemakers because they create electromagnetic fields that can interfere with their operation.

The British Heart Foundation recommends that you keep a distance of at least 60cm between any power source and an active hob, if you are wearing pacemakers. The magnetic field produced by the hob could cause electrical devices to malfunction. Make sure the device is not within reach of hot cookers or hot plate zones.

This hb is also designed with safety in the mind. It comes with child locks, anti-overflow, as well as overheat settings.

This induction hob has an aesthetic that is more contemporary than other models. This is reflected in the sleek black finish that will blend well with the majority of kitchen designs. It has a range of features, including the ability to pause that lets you temporarily shut off the oven hob without removing your pan, and a boost function that gives you extra power to speed up the heating process. It's also rated as energy efficient and its touch-screen includes a variety of preset options for your favorite recipes.

The word hob is an ancient English term that originally meant the term 'a grate or shelf that is placed in front of a fire'. It's an archaic term that refers to the way we cooked in our homes years ago, with huge fireplaces and shelves that were separate from where pots were placed to cook. Today, the majority of kitchens have an oven as well as an additional hob (stove top) that is either gas or electric.
