Wow. You're the first guy I've talked to that is not highly positive about the new induction stove tops. Why?
OK, induction might be better. I think gas is the best, but perhaps induction behaves more like gas than other electric. Don't you need special pans? I have no experience with induction.
People have raved about induction units. Do need special pans. Temperature control significantly exceeds gas. And avoids real health issues with gas.
what are the health issues with gas?
I'd be concerned about the glass cooktop
But to each their own. The good news is that you can use all that solar power
Kind of tough to eyeball the pan temp with electric. Years of cooking with gas have given me temperature calibrating eyes.
Commercial grade hood vent ensures no gas fume issue.Kind of tough to eyeball the pan temp with electric. Years of cooking with gas have given me temperature calibrating eyes.
major byproducts of burning natural gas are carbon dioxide and water vapor. Very "clean"
Every self respecting chef cooks with gas.
Gas temperature is much easier to regulate
and will predictably lead to the same cooking
time on the same knob setting for same stove.
When I want to be a chef I use wood coal from the
Amazon, called Fogo, take about an hour for coals to get even,
Luftlighter elimates need for carcinogenic starter fluid.
Ah, properly tenderized and marinated pork becomes a
delicacy, when coals become weaker we add the jumbo shimp
and fish. Pour me a glass of Carnivor cab! Mandatory
shower after the grill

I had a Thermadore LP cooktop at my old house. Currently constructing a new high-end home and going with induction. As much as I love gas, not only because how it cooks but also just the appearance of the cooktop, I didn't want the hassle and appearance of a new LP tank on the side of the house. Now, if my choices were only the old electric vs LP it would be a no-brainer and I'd go with gas. But with induction having many of the same qualities as gas I went with that. If I lived up north and already had gas piped to the house I would personally do gas over induction.
