With two Michelin stars under his belt, it is fair to say Michel Roux Jr knows a thing or two about the best hob for whipping up show stopping meal. 

‘I really like induction hobs,’ explains Michel. ‘I really enjoy it, I think it is super clean, because you can wipe down afterwards. It’s very fierce, and as easy to control as gas. But it’s super energy efficient which is great.’

Michel practices what he preaches, and converted the hobs at his restaurant La Gavroche to induction hobs 10 year ago. He also uses them in his own home in South London. 

‘I’m converted to induction,’ he confesses. ‘When I cook on gas now I just find it odd and peculiar – the smell, the fact that heat is escaping. And then when you remove the pan the gas is still burning. I just find it so old and antiquated. If I want flames, I’ll cook on a BBQ.’

However, he does have one small warning when using an induction hob. ‘If you’re not careful you will burn anything that is in the pan,’ he warns. ‘At the restaurant, we very rarely use it on full power for that reason, because it is so fierce.’ 

Michel Roux was speaking on behalf of Homebase. The celebrity chef has recently launched an exclusive range of Roux Kitchens with Homebase. The range is full of stunning components all made in the UK, that can be mixed and matched to create a bespoke kitchen worthy of a Michelin starred chef.
