First preference by pro chefs is a gas flame. Especially for the stove top cooking. A gas flame, unlike a burner for an electric stove, is controllable and all chefs want control. Adjusting the gas flame for the size of the pot and the food you are cooking will control the heat distribution. This feature will allow you to cook evenly, faster and embolden the taste of your food. In addition, you will consume less Natural or Propane gas, thus saving energy and keeping your cost to cook much lower.
 A Stove Top's Gas Flames |  Fan at Back of Convection Oven |
Convection ovens are professional chefs' preferred oven because of faster and more even baking. They will even go as far as stating that the food has a more delicious taste. In addition, due to the fan circulating the heated air throughout the oven, food will cook faster even when the oven is set at the usual temperature. So no matter where the food is placed in the oven... Top rack or bottom rack, in the front or toward the back - no problem. Your food will cook or bake evenly and faster. End result, Lower Energy Bills!
