I love all the nerd ass comments telling me UMM ACTUALLY YOU ONLY LOVE GAS STOVE BECAUSE PROPAGANDA YOU'RE A MORON
Im a professional cook and I've cooked more in the last year alone than most of y'all will in your lives, I know what I'm about, thx
literal gaslighting btw "don't believe your lying eyes and years of experience cooking, you've just been lied to bro"
Okay, but have you done a similar amount of cooking on induction as you have on gas? Have you been in a professional kitchen where all of the appliances used electric? Have you actually ruled out that gas is better or is it just your totally unscientific preference?
I was a professional cook too before I left that toxic ass industry, btw.
The main difference between gas and induction for me were that you can't stir over heat (doing the shaking thing over flames, I don't know what the word is) because the pan needs to have direct contact with the induction stove and all the induction stoves I've used have been way worse when it comes to adjusting heat. Also pans develop curves with use, or at least in my experience they do. As soon as they curve they suck on induction
The pan doesn't instantly get cold when you pick it up for two seconds to shake your stir fry around. And if it's really such a problem then leave the pan on the stove top and stir with a wooden spoon or something.
Thank you for explaining to me how my stovetop works, I really hadn't considered leaving it on the top and stirring it with a spoon so this is really eyeopening for me. Likewise I appreciate you explaining how heat functions as I really did not consider the fact that pots stay hot, so once again thank you.
