Product Information

Also, if you are likely to want to fry or boil food, hobs are essential. Therefore, you’re going to need to think about looking for a large enough cooking zone as well as the type of hobs which are likely to be most practical for you.

The golden rule of griddling is to oil the food, not the pan. There's no point adding oil to the pan, as it'll drain away between the ridges. Griddle pans come in all shapes and sizes and while they can be made from a variety of materials – ceramic, stainless steel or aluminium, for example – there are generally two types: The induction griddle is compatible with our next generation induction models that feature a bridging zone. The bridging zone joins two cooking zones together to make one large zone, meaning you can cook even more food in a variety of ways. The grooved griddle is perfect for everything from steak, to prawns, to aubergine and toasted sandwiches!The changeable British weather can make outdoor cooking difficult, but our reversible griddles make things a lot easier!

What’s less endearing is the typical downside of cast iron. Seasoning the pan and scrubbing it by hand is a chore – we found we had to wash it a couple of times to get rid of food debris. It’s also quite hefty at 2kg, although a “helper handle” lip means you can carry it with two hands and an oven glove. Ultimately, if you’re willing to put in the time to maintain this pan, it should deliver a lifetime of tasty chargrilled flavour in return. Its low ridges do mean that food has a tendency to brown rather than sear, especially if any juices aren’t poured off but heat distribution is excellent and extends to the edges. It’s also not too heavy at just 890g. Another big plus is the 10-year guarantee, giving you peace of mind that it will be able to keep up with regular use. Made from robust cast aluminium, the sit-on griddle plate sits snugly on top of the gas hob and pan supports, when required. The flat plate is ideal for cooking bacon and French toast, while the grooved plate provides fat drainage, offering a healthier way to sear steaks, burgers and fish.Wok burners – Often found on gas hobs. Larger in size to accommodate woks, and often more powerful for higher heats For the most authentic chargrilled stripes and sizzling flavour, you should consider this reasonably priced round griddle pan from Stellar. Not only does it boast an attractive long wooden handle and traditional styling, but the pan’s surface also has sharp ridges for perfect searing. Any food we cooked on it emerged from the pan with deep brown marks and a tangible, smoky flavour. It retained and distributed heat well too – every part of the pan sizzled the ingredients. Rather than needing a separate cooker hoodabove your cooking area, or a downdraft extractor installed behind the hob, an air extraction hob does both jobs. So when you’re cooking, there is a fan in the centre of the unit which can get rid of smoke, smells and steam as soon as it appears, before it emerges into your kitchen. Good design is also important, which is why we make a note of things such as pouring lips, which enable excess fat to be poured away, as well as extra handles to carry the pan and handles that are comfortable to grip.
