You niggers need to differentiate between normal electric (hot coils or glass ceramic) and induction. Induction is more responsive and way more powerful than any normal consumer gas range.

>> No.11463065

Parents always had electric and I feel blessed to have gas now. I've used both a shitty and nice gas stove though so to some degree I understand the hate for gas. There's literally no control if you have a shitty gas stove. The viking model I have now is excellent and responsive. If I'm using a thinner pan that doesn't retain heat well, the sizzling will cease very quickly. Biggest complaint is probably that even the viking low temperatures are still pretty hot, not idea for simmering. Electric does seem to have the edge there (and literally only there)

I'm not that anon, but I'll take electric for ovens too. The reason is that the heat is more stable. An electric heating element can be switched on for very short lengths of time. A gas flame has a longer duty cycle so the temperature of a gas oven is less consistent.

Induction has an efficiency advantage but it has a lot of disadvantages too:
-it only works with certain kinds of cookware
-it annoyingly shuts itself off when you move pans or pick them up to toss food
-it has trouble maintaining an even low simmer

Gas kicks the crap out of it.

to be honest, i've only ever used 2 different gas stoves. but i live in an area that pretty much only has glass-top electric stoves, and they have always heated my cast iron pan much more evenly (and quickly...) than the gas burners i've tried.

my portable induction stovetop heats quickly and seems good, but i think my pan is just a little too big for it because the center gets a lot hotter than the outer areas.

glass-top electric / induction > gas > electric coils

i would assume a nice expensive gas burner would BTFO everything else i've used, but of course more money = better experience.
