Halogen Or Induction???

[midwife94]

could somebody please tell me the difference between halogen hobs and nduction hobs?? I don't know what mine is! It's a Schott ceran glass hob. I want to know if I need a diffuser when using a clay pot?? Thanks

Halogen- very bright light
Induction- nothing special visible. (I'm gas...so may not be right!)

does it get hot?

If it's induction it won't work with a clay pot at all, only pots with magnetic bases work on Induction hobs, they also don't light up on the cooking surfaces like halogen.

I wouldn't put a clay pot on a halogen hob, even with a diffuser...and on an induction hob, it won't work.
