Reply to comment by [deleted] in Does thin stuff placed between pan and induction cooker affect efficiency in a significant manner? by BitsAndBobs304

you think the bottom of a pan will get to 210C when cooking by induction? can you imagine what would happen to the oil IN the pan at 210c?

210 degrees C is considered medium heat lol. Have fun with your little kitchen fire.

Virgin olive oil (which has one of the lowest smoke points) starts smoking around 190°C, so if you use other oils (avocado, sunflower), strictly nothing would happen at 210°C. 210°C is a perfectly standard temperature for cooking. If you want your chicken to cook to 75°C (the safe temperature), your pan has to be much hotter than that otherwise it will take hours for your chicken to heat up.
