Induction Cooking for Better Health

The answer to Better Health is exercise and the food we eat. Nutritious, low-fat, low-sodium meals reduce dangerous cholesterol cut unwanted calories and retain important minerals, vitamins, and life-giving enzymes. All of our fresh foods have a built-in natural goodness. But the wonderful health-giving values you paid dearly for at your grocery store may soon disappear in your kitchen. With old-fashioned conventional cooking methods, fresh vegetables must be peeled, boiled, or steamed, and subjected to high heat of the microwave, not to mention the use of cooking fats and oils. All of this results in the irreplaceable loss of a large share of the vital minerals, vitamins, and enzymes that we need for better health.

       Induction Cooking creates wholesome, great tasting meals, without sacrificing vitamins, minerals, and enzymes. Furthermore, the methods you will learn, in my cookbooks and throughout my website, thoroughly capture the wonderful flavors we expect in our meals. It is possible because of this unique cooking method. Foods are cooked at precise temperatures, below the boiling point, in a vapor seal. This Ultra-Seal™ method of waterless cooking with Ultra-Tech II™ induction cookware is the secret that that retains vital nutritional values. By eliminating the need for peeling, boiling, steaming and microwaving, vegetables and fruits come to the table with a “garden fresh” taste, and meats are gently browned and cooked in their own natural juices, without the need for high calorie oils and fat. It is a whole new experience in cooking and taste, and a key benefit for better health.

       Because food preparation is easy and efficient, waterless cooking with Ultra-Tech II™ induction cookware has become the preferred method of millions of home cooks and professional chefs who are dedicated to better health through healthier cooking techniques. My new cookbook "Cooking for a Longer, Healthier Life" contains exciting recipes that will bring nature’s goodness to your table every day. Chef Charles Knight

How Does Induction Cooking Work?

An induction-cooker element (a "burner") is a powerful, high-frequency electromagnet, with the electromagnetism generated by sophisticated electronics in the "element" under the unit's ceramic surface. When an induction compatible pan is placed in the magnetic field that the element is generating, the field transfers ("induces") energy into that metal. That transferred energy causes the metal--the cooking vessel--to become hot. By controlling the strength of the electromagnetic field, we can control the amount of heat being generated in the cooking vessel--and we can change that amount instantaneously; the difference is that here, the heat is generated directly in the pot or pan itself, not in any part of the induction cooker.)

.

Nothing outside the vessel is affected by the field--as soon as the vessel is removed from the element, or the element turned off, heat generation stops..
