  • Yes, and you can test it pretty easily by just seeing how much faster a pot of water boils on induction, on-par with the boiling times of commercial burners.

    Also, in a commercial setting, induction stoves cook just as effectively with less energy which means they don’t put out nearly as much heat to the environment. For a chef, its the difference between working all day in 90-degree spaces to 70-degree AC. I’m an engineer who works on a lot of commercial kitchens (among other things), and our chefs love the electric kitchens we’ve delivered.

    When you’re cooking for work, 8+ hours a day, being comfortable while you do it is a major game changer.

    The other thing they enjoy is the level of control and consistency - many professional induction ranges will let you control on temperature, which means you can quickly adjust to specific values in order to, say, sear a steak at 500, then finish it at 300 until it hits the desired internal temperature.

    Woulda been something like a “I’m buying plane tickets for our vacation, what’s your passport no.” kind of situation. Or, SO: “left my wallet, what’s my DL# so I can pay this parking ticket”.

    Not certain anything is there, but we’ve been together long enough, I’m not certain it’s not there either.

    ETA: Maybe also “we’re going on vacation abroad, State Department recommends keeping a separate copy of our passports in case something happens”

    I recognize long term relationship is different from mistress, but still
