BirdDancer ! Ugh I’m so sorry to hear about your head cold. Oh gawd they are so miserable I hope it passes quickly !

Wild , Yes cooking on gas does make a huge different in rice and pasta ..When we were in Florida of course it was electric , I was burning food left and right !!!! I honestly hate the thought of ever going back to electric!

Everything is just a choice
