Can i use my grill mat on electric stove top?

Electric stovetops produce heat through a heating element that is located *directly below* the surface. This means that the heat is directed upwards and can easily scorch the grill mat, causing it to deform and potentially release toxic fumes.

Furthermore, the heat produced by electric stovetops is not as evenly distributed as with gas stovetops, which makes it more difficult to control the temperature. This can lead to hot spots that can further damage the grill mat and cause food to cook unevenly.

For these reasons, it's best to avoid using grill mats on an electric stovetop and instead opt for cookware specifically designed for electric cooking.
