The evolution of the stove goes from those fueled by <strong>coal<\/strong> to those with intelligent sensors that can cook a plate independently and let us know when it is ready, a <strong>technological revolution<\/strong> that makes our lives easier. But the history of the cooker or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/serie\/variopro-hobs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hobs<\/a>, the history of the gas, (vitro) ceramic, and induction were born just a couple of centuries ago, leaving behind many good moments and a few burned dishes too. Join us on this brief journey about the <strong>history of the hob<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<h2>The first cookers and stoves<\/h2>\n<p>The use of fire in a primitive kitchen is dated 4,000 years ago in the Indo Valley. Rests of holes in the sole for fire and tools to place food above were found there. The race to find ways to dominate <strong>fire<\/strong> runs parallel with the making of\u00a0<strong>tools<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>construction<\/strong>\u00a0elements. All these improvements happened in other geographical areas, and the oven began to evolve too for different purposes. But it will take a long time for the Western civilization to stop cooking over a direct flame.<\/p>\n<p>In <strong>Alsace<\/strong>, that territory everybody used to love to annex, a structure similar to a cooker is dated in 1490. It was made out of brick and tile. This structure had some room on the top to release the heat, and it also had a <strong>chimney<\/strong> to help the smoke go out. Scandinavians and Russians, particularly interested in developing any heating system for obvious reasons, improved these models.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-76937\" src=\"https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/135\/2021\/11\/First-kitchens.jpg\" alt=\"Primitive stove\" width=\"700\" height=\"436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/135\/2021\/11\/First-kitchens.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/135\/2021\/11\/First-kitchens-480x299.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 700px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s going to travel a bit further in time, landing in the future U.S.A. <strong>Benjamin Franklin<\/strong>, the man of the kite, invented in 1742 a sort of cooker based on a fireplace that begins to look like the future kitchen stoves, the \u201cPennsylvania fireplace\u201d. Another North American, <strong>David Rittenhouse,<\/strong> somebody who was able to build a planetarium and study the atmosphere in Venus at the same time, improved this new Franklin stove. His upgrade preserved the heat better. He decided to name it \u201cRittenhouse stove\u201d since stealing ideas was something common by then. Edison experienced something similar a few years later, and it is said even that the so-called great inventor also developed extortion with great success.<\/p>\n<h2>Cooktops and hobs in the modern times<\/h2>\n<p>Europa was already developing new tools for the kitchen with brick models, progressively more safe and <strong>efficient<\/strong> with smoke and keeping heat. <strong>Benjamin Thompson<\/strong> is well-known too as the inventor of the modern stove at the end of the XVIII century, or at least, his promoter, thanks to some models made with this new system. The stoves or cooktops were usually found in most <strong>homes<\/strong> and, when population emigrated to the cities, they became even more popular. The next step was the <strong>cast iron<\/strong> stove, very common for a long time in many homes, especially in the countryside.<\/p>\n<h3>The gas hob<\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/kitchen\/hobs\/?type_of_appliance[]=Gas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gas<\/a> hobs were born at the beginning of the XIX century. But it was not until the end of the same century that these tips of hobs reached ordinary homes. And they became a success. The gas meant, among other improvements, that the source of energy could be used just and only when it was needed, with higher control of <strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">consumption<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. When the XX century arrived, these hobs were popular on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. It was\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">cleaner<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0than charcoal or wood and, apparently, more convenient, because the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=kLFiaSoqQ90\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gas<\/a> did not need much room. It was very dangerous, though, that\u2019s a fact.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-76938 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/135\/2021\/11\/advantages-gas-hobs.jpg\" alt=\"History of the hob: the gas hob\" width=\"700\" height=\"436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/135\/2021\/11\/advantages-gas-hobs.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/135\/2021\/11\/advantages-gas-hobs-480x299.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 700px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/news\/launching-of-new-products\/nueva-placa-twin-gas-e-induccion-unidos-en-un-mismo-espacio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gas<\/a> is still common with several improvements, and it is the most usual sort of hob in professional kitchens. That total control over the flame that our ancestors were looking for became a reality. It is just that it takes us, let\u2019s say, a few centuries. But we are going to come back a few years again because the hobs would change even more, at least, the <strong>sources of energy<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>The electric hob<\/h3>\n<p>In the XIX century the hob story is about to give a huge step forward. The gas hob has a rival: <strong>electricity<\/strong>. Even though the electric hob was introduced at the World\u2019s Columbian Exposition \u2014Chicago World\u2019s Fair\u2014 in 1893, they did not become accessible until the \u201950s, because not everybody can afford <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/inspiration\/innovation\/what-home-appliances-use-more-electricity\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">electricity<\/a> at home. And watching the electricity prices we may come back to that, who knows. Anyway, the <strong>welfare<\/strong> state in some countries since 1950 meant the definitive launching for these sorts of hobs.<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The electric hobs used a heating resistance to heat iron plates. Many developed homes had these hobs, but the next step was imminent: the invention of the (vitro)\u00a0<strong>ceramic hob<\/strong>. Also, the higher purchase power for most of the people made that money was available to spend on home improvements. And after two world wars and war casualties, people were eager to spend. It was a period good for\u00a0<strong>research and development<\/strong>\u00a0in the everyday life needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Vitroceramic is here<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-76939\" src=\"https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/135\/2021\/11\/vitroceramic-glass-ceramic-install.jpg\" alt=\"History of the hob.

And the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/kitchen\/hobs\/?type_of_appliance[]=Vitroceramic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">vitroceramic<\/a>, glass-ceramic hob, arouse. With an improving surface, easy to clean, it became immediately one of the favourite choices for the kitchen.<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The North American <strong>Donald Stookey<\/strong> discovered in 1953 this new material, the <strong>glass-ceramic.<\/strong> It happened when he accidentally set a higher temperature in an oven during an experiment. This also was the first step for many <strong>thermal resistance<\/strong>\u00a0kitchen tools, and it was the base of the glass-ceramic hobs we know these days: a heating coil or halogen lamps heating anything we put over them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The improvements related to the heating source came, so it happens with the furniture where the hob was. The models changed\u00a0<strong>size<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>weight<\/strong>, they improved the\u00a0<strong>space<\/strong> for other kitchen tools and plates. They began to be more convenient and easier to use. And the most important thing: they were becoming safer. The iron on the surface of the cooker was eventually substituted by other metals or enamel finish. Because a new concept was also introduced, the hob or cooktop as a new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/inspiration\/design\/modular-kitchens-and-home-appliances-for-a-unique-design\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">design<\/a>, stylish element in the kitchen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Induction breaks through<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-76940\" src=\"https:\/\/www.teka.com\/en-sa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/135\/2021\/11\/glass-ceramic-vitoceramic-induction.jpg\" alt=\"History of the hob.

It did not become popular in the kitchens until the \u201870s in the XX century with the firm Westinghouse. Nobody paid attention before, frankly.
