A Guide to the Best Hobs in the UK

A hob is an oven that is different from the cooker. A cooker is freestanding and includes both a stove and an oven.

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

Gas Hobs

A well-built hob is essential in modern kitchens. There's a suitable hob for every budget and style, whether you're looking for ceramic or induction, or gas. A quality hob can heat up quickly and evenly to cook your food in a snap and also add an elegant look to your kitchen.

One of the main advantages of a gas hob is its precise temperature control. It's easy to reach high heat levels, which is ideal for boiling water, searing meat, and stir-frying vegetables. The ability to adjust the temperature quickly makes it ideal for delicate dishes or sauces that require the use of a lower temperature setting.

Another benefit of a gas hob is its energy efficiency. Gas is more affordable than electricity and can be used to power hobs. Furthermore, it makes use of direct flames to heat the utensils, oven and Hob which means that there is less energy wasted around the edges of the burners.

Modern gas hobs feature a sleek design to match any kitchen decor. You can choose models with a glossy black or stainless steel finish that will blend in seamlessly and make your kitchen look more contemporary. If you prefer, you can pick a glass model that is easy to clean and highly durable.

Gas hobs are an increasingly popular option in modern kitchens due to their flexibility and simplicity of use. They can also complement traditional kitchen designs, particularly when you incorporate a range cooker into the layout. It's important to remember that they can increase the risk of fire when compared to electric or induction stoves. This is because they don't come with the additional safety features like being able to be turned off immediately and also having child safety locks on the knobs that control the hob.

When choosing a gas stove, you should take into consideration the number of burners and cooking zones you need. There are models that have one or two cooking zones. Many models come with a central wok that is a very powerful burner that can be used for rapid boiling or stir-frying. Make sure you know the type of ignition you are using. Most gas hobs ignite the burners by using an electric spark or an ongoing electric pilot flame.

Hobs Induction

Induction cookers have gained popularity due to their speed and efficiency. Gas hobs are a favorite among home cooks. These flat glass-topped cookers employ magnetism to heat the contents of a pan, rather than heating the surface area which makes them more efficient, and safer as there is no flame under. Induction hobs have a range of features, including some which our Good Housekeeping Institute experts have found can be particularly useful.

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 individually via the touchscreen panel. This is a great alternative for those who love to entertain. It can also be a lifesaver if you have guests with special dietary requirements. It is important to note that induction hobs aren't suited for those with pacemakers as they generate electromagnetic fields which can interfere with their operation.

The British Heart Foundation recommends that you maintain a distance of at least 60cm between any power source and an active hob, in the event that you wear pacemakers. The magnetic field produced by the hob can also interact with electrical devices, causing them to malfunction, therefore you'll want to make sure that the device isn't in the vicinity of an oven or an area of cooking live.

This model is from CDA is another induction hob we provide. It comes with five zones as well as various functions, such as melt and simmer, which are ideal for slow-cooked stews or bain-maries. The hb was designed with safety in mind. It has child locks, anti-overflow, and overheat settings.

The design of this induction cooker is more modern than some others we have available. This is reflected by the sleek black surface that will blend perfectly with the majority of kitchen designs. It is equipped with a variety of options such as a pause feature that allows you to turn off the stove without taking off the pan, and an increase feature that provides extra power for a quick heat-up. It is also energy-efficient, and the touch-screen has some handy pre-set recipes for your favourites.

LPG Hobs

When you are choosing a gas stove, there are plenty of options to take into consideration. Some models offer automatic pan detection as an added safety feature. This allows the cooking zones to start only when the appropriate cookware is placed, preventing heat waste. Some hobs have a combination of cooking zones that can accommodate different pan sizes. Certain hobs are equipped with child locks to keep unintentional fingers away from the controls. Some even come with an auto-shutoff feature that shuts the hob off if it is not used for a specific duration of time.

Another great thing about LPG is that it's far more widely available than electricity, which is typically difficult to locate in rural areas. It's liquid form makes it easy to store and transport, making it perfect for those who live in remote areas or cater businesses that don't have access to gas mains.

The word hob comes from an old English phrase that originally referred to 'a shelf, grate or fireside'. It's an old term that describes how we cooked at home in previous decades with huge fireplaces and shelves that were separate for pots. Today, the majority of kitchens have an oven, as well as an additional hob (stove top) that can be gas or electric.

The British often refer to their stove as a hob but other countries might use the term cooker. A hob is a separate piece of equipment that has heating rings that heat saucepans and cookware, while a cooker is a bigger freestanding unit comprising both oven and hob. A range cooker is an oven and hob that are typically incorporated into a single unit.
