Shop High-Performance Induction Base Kadai Online from Stahl

Cooking on an induction? The first thing you need is a good, reliable induction base kadai. What comprises a kadai base made for induction cooking? The answer lies in the thickness, type of metal used and the shape of the base. An induction base kadai is flat, thick and includes ferro-magnetic metals like Stainless Steel 430. Stahl’s Artisan range of triply kadais tick all the boxes when it comes to induction cooking. They can be used on both gas and electric sources of heat. Explore the Stahl Artisan range to find a kadai that suits your needs. 

What is an Induction Base Kadai?

An induction base kadai is one that has a flat and thick base and is made of stainless steel with magnetic qualities. Not all stainless steel has magnetic properties. Stahl’s triply induction base kadai is made of three layers - food grade stainless steel 304 (that touches the food), aluminum as the second layer (for heat induction) and magnetic stainless steel 430 in the outer layer. This makes it fully compatible with induction heat. 

Benefits of Cooking with Induction Kadhai

The induction compatible kadhai is a revelation for every home chef. Here’s why:

• Even Heat Distribution: No more scorched corners or raw middles-triply and cast iron construction ensure every inch of your dish is perfectly cooked.
• Faster Cooking Times: Induction’s direct energy, paired with Stahl’s engineering, means meals are ready in record time, saving both effort and electricity.
• Energy Efficiency: Less heat lost to the air, more channelled into your food-good for your bills and the environment.
• Safe, Healthy Cooking: Non-reactive surfaces and ISI-certified designs protect your health and peace of mind.
• Easy Cleaning and Maintenance: Stick-resistant surfaces and thoughtful design make cleanup swift and simple.
• Versatility: Deep-fry, sauté, slow-cook, or bake-Stahl’s induction kadhai handles it all with grace.

How to Choose the Right Induction Base Kadhai

• Check for Thickness - Induction base kadhais need to be thicker than regular kadhais to conduct heat properly. While you might be able to cook on an induction with a kadhai with thin walls but thick base, this might result in hotspots and uneven cooking. 
• Check for the flatness of the base - Unlike regular kadhais, an induction friendly kadhai needs to have a flat base to sit comfortably on the flat base of the induction
• Do the Magnet test - If your stainless steel kadai sticks to a metal firmly, it is safe for induction cooking.

Choose the Stahl triply kadhai which is robustly made and designed to suit the induction cooktop.

Maintenance & Care Tips for Kadai for Induction

To keep your induction friendly kadai singing for years, follow these simple notes:

• Clean Gently: Use mild detergent and a soft sponge. Avoid harsh scouring pads, especially on stick-resistant or enameled surfaces.
• Dry Thoroughly: Prevent water spots and rust (especially on cast iron) by drying your kadhai completely after washing.
• Season Cast Iron Occasionally: If using a traditional cast iron kadhai, season it with a light coat of oil after cleaning. The enameled Blacksmith Hybrid needs less fuss.
• Avoid Metal Utensils on Non-Stick: Use wooden or silicone tools to protect the surface, unless your kadhai is metal-spatula friendly like the Hybrid series.
• Store Carefully: Stackable designs make storage easy-just ensure surfaces are dry and lids are off to prevent odours.
• Check Induction Compatibility: Always use a flat-bottomed kadhai for best results on induction.
