You will LOVE cooking with gas. You’ll never go back. I hate electric.
This new stove that I have (just a GE, nothing fancy, but a TOTAL upgrade to what Beau had me using for the past eight years) has all cast iron grates, so it has been a learning curve - those grates REALLY hold the heat!
Chiffon Cheesecake
A good way to gourmandize cheesecake to another level of deliciousness.
Ing 16 oz cr/cheese 8 oz sour cream 2-3.4 oz pkg vanilla pudding
(not instant) 4 Tbl butter 1 Tbl vanilla 20-25 butter cookies, crushed
Steps Beat cr/cheese and sour cream fluffy. Cook pudding as per package, using 3-1/2 cups milk. Offheat, add butter and vanilla, then cheese mixture. Pour into greased 9" springform w/ cookie crumb crust. Cover/chill 24 hours before serving.
I do love my gas cooktop & I also have cast iron grates. The grates are heavy, but easy to lift off for cleaning. I have a large farm sink so I have room to wash the grates (yesterday they had Cranberry Apple Preserves splattered on them) & with the grates off, cleaning around the burners is easy.
Bunch of shooting going on nearby - small arms & something a lot bigger. It sounds like target practice - usually happens on Sunday mornings back on the mountain - this sounds like on the river & a lot closer.
Gas is the best! If I ever have to go back to electric, it will be on an old coil type, or an induction stove top. I really hate the glass top stoves even if they are easy to clean. They have to cycle on and off so whatever you cook isn’t consistent. Gas is truly the best, and so reliable. That Joe and his friends would like to get rid of them for us, and not them, just gets me so angry.
