Would it also be BAD to move the heated pot from the burner you just used to cook with, to a different burner that isn't turned on AFTER you're done in order to let the food start cooling? Would this cause cracks from the change in temp? or is the whole glass top considered "preheated" when you use one burner?
That's a great question! Moving a hot pot to a cool burner on a glass cooktop is generally safe for modern cooktops, but exercising caution is advised. To prevent potential damage, avoid extreme temperature changes. Always lift the pot using pot holders rather than sliding it to protect both yourself and the cooktop's surface. Remember, only the burner area becomes hot. For added safety, allow the pot to cool slightly before moving it.
