Hi Pigcat,
As I and shanky said, radiant rings are not the same, not similar, not close. Like an oven (gas,electric,wood,solid fuel, camel turds or whatever) to a microwave.
If I say you can't do something, someone will argue - not my aim.
I know a website that gives instruction on how to make "bread" in a microwave and brown under a salamander. But that's not baking, and to me bread is defined as a baked good - not a dumpling, not a doughnut etc.
Examples, if you tilt a pan to baste the contents, the heating of the pan stops, you cant heat or warm a utensil, can't flambe etc. Plus the sales increase the already loathsome practice of "hobs" which are too high for most users. My friend, who does ALL the cooking, has to stand on a slab to use the hob in the "custom fitted kitchen" that her husband bought "for her" as "a surprise". It would cost thousands to redo the kitchen. Bloody salesmen - Admen, badmen, shysters.
Love'n'joy
Lloyd
