How to Clean a Induction Hob
Every few weeks, give it a spa day. Mix a paste of baking soda and water—thick, like toothpaste. Smear it all over the hob. Let it sit for 15 minutes. Wipe off with a damp cloth. Then spray a little vinegar to neutralize the baking soda. The result? A mirror finish that reflects your smug smile.
Funny detail: Induction hobs are so flat that some people use them as temporary mirrors in a pinch. I’ve checked my teeth in mine. Don’t judge. It’s a feature.
What NOT to do (the horror stories)
Never use oven cleaner. That stuff melts skin and glass coatings. Don’t use a razor blade—too thick, too sharp. And for the love of all things sparkly, don’t wipe it dry when it’s hot. That leaves rainbow streaks called “heat stains.” They’re not permanent, but they look like you dropped a unicorn on your stove.
Also: avoid stacking ceramic dishes on the hob when not in use. The bottom grit scratches glass. Your hob is not a shelf. It’s a superhero in disguise.
