Teluog's Kitchen Adventures

That does look mighty tasty. I just feel sorry for you having to cook on electric.

If you iron and clean as well as you cook..... you will be cooking, cleaning and ironing for the rest of your life... even when married!
If you want to get rid of it though.... you must be more helpless (hopeless maybe).
So throw in some disasters and you will find love!


Seriously, very tasty Teluog! You should start a catering for male bachelor students.

If it wasn't for stir fry, Teluog would starve to death.









Anybody know if we can make stir fry illegal in Canadia?

It's just that gas is so much easier to cook on. And I understand the problems of cooking for one. It's hard to find single serving sizes of any thing in the store, unless you're lucky enough to have a good meat department, or a neighborhood butcher.

It's easier to adjust the temperature, because you can see the flame. When it's off, it's off. There's no coil to stay hot forever, so if you trip over the dog, and land on the burner you just switched off, you don't get burned. And when the recipe says to "remove from heat", you just turn the fire off. you don't have to find a clear spot in a very small kitchen with NO counter space. I've used gas and electric about evenly in my life, and I much prefer gas.

I used both, and still don't see a difference. The metal part that the pot/pan sits on overtop of the flame stays hot after it's turned off. The electric burners I used get hot or cool off really quick

Well, then, you're lucky. I ended up in the ER one night with a series of concentric circles burnt onto my hand. I tripped over the dog and landed hand first on the burner. She was apparently after a piece of onion I dropped.
