Induction Cooking

I have been dying to try induction cooking. If you are not familiar with it, the heat is generated by magnetics. The surface of the appliance does not heat up and you have to use pans that will hold a magnet. It heats up faster than traditional methods. What I like is that you don't have the cooked on foods you get on gas or traditional electric tops.

Now that you know what it is, I bought one! Not a whole cook top, but the Viking portable unit. So far I love it. It is amazing how quickly a pot of water comes to a boil. After almost a week of cooking it is still shiny clean with only a quick wipe. Nothing cooked on to scrub. I will keep you informed as I cook more with it.
