Centrist take: If you can’t get a decent sear on a gas stove you need to learn how to cook.

    Insanity. You clearly do not cook. I’m saying this as someone who bought a fancy induction cooktop. Gas is still superior.

      I switched from gas to induction last year, and I cook frequently and with competence–in a previous life I was sous at a French restaurant and then at a northern Italian restaurant.

      I like them both, but the benefits of induction for a home kitchen outweigh the benefits of the gas stove for me. And that’s putting aside the health benefits. Induction>gas>electric for me!

      I mean, you’re free to screw up your lungs and possibly increase your risk of cancer. Nobody is going to stop you.
