The kitchen continues to evolve to become even more ergonomic for its users, to the point of being able to cook without a hob!
The kitchen is a living space that is constantly evolving to accommodate all desires and requirements. Having worktops is one of the most important criteria when designing a kitchen that is practical and aesthetic. However, between the sink and cooking areas, it can be complicated to clear enough work surfaces, especially since many households opt for a kitchen open to the living room. But that’s without counting on this revolutionary concept, on the verge of replacing induction hobs.
A revolutionary system has appeared in the world of cooking: invisible cooking. This element is considered the future of the induction hob, because it has the same functionalities as an induction cooking system, with the only difference that it is completely invisible! Indeed, the particularity of this type of cooking surface is that it blends completely into the work surface, for an aesthetic result and saving space. By opting for this innovative system, the worktop becomes an all-in-one element for preparing meals by serving as both a cutting and preparation table, but also for cooking. All this while being particularly easy to maintain and resistant to heat, cuts and scratches. These cooktops are completely waterproof, which makes the material even more robust for culinary moments full of pleasure!
How exactly does it work? An invisible hob is installed under a ceramic worktop and works through it to cook, just like a traditional hob. This induction system does not generate direct heat except when cooking with utensils suitable for induction, so it can be used by the whole family in complete safety.
A controller to operate the plate can be installed on the counter or hidden in a drawer to further create the illusion of a classic worktop. And like any innovation, it is possible to connect your hob to your smartphone for remote control via a dedicated application.
If this solution only presents advantages, its cost remains its major disadvantage. The price varies depending on the brands and models with models around 600 euros. You should also consider the cost of the ceramic worktop required, which may be higher. Many brands such as Invisacook, Infinity or Cooking Surface offer invisible cooking solutions.
