CLEVER COOKING

Gaggenau’s Flex Induction 90cm cooktop (right) has landed in stores across Australia, bringing a professional touch to the kitchens of serious home cooks. The surface-mounted cooktop, bordered by a chic stainless-steel frame, is divided into three preset hot spots, making for an easier transition from boiling to simmering. There’s also an in-built griddle plate that has us dreaming of teppanyaki. The cooktop costs from $5999. Visit gaggenau.com/au.
