Definice a Význam "hot plate"

What is a "hot plate"?

A hot plate is a small, portable cooking appliance that consists of a flat heating surface powered by electricity or gas. It is used for cooking food in situations where a traditional stove or oven is not available or convenient, such as dorm rooms, small kitchens, or camping trips. Hot plates come in various sizes and styles, ranging from single-burner models to larger units with multiple heating zones. They are versatile tools suitable for boiling, simmering, frying, or warming up food in pots, pans, or skillets placed directly on the hot surface.
