With the continuous rise in energy prices, many families are looking to reduce their gas consumption without sacrificing comfort. What few people know is that a simple and clever trick can help you save up to 30% on cooking gas — effortlessly, without expensive equipment, and using everyday household items.
🧠 The Trick: Cook with a Lid and Turn Off the Heat Before the End
It may sound trivial, but using a proper lid on your pots helps retain heat and cook food more quickly. Additionally, turning off the gas a few minutes before the end of cooking allows the food to continue cooking using residual heat.
🔍 Why Does It Work?
When you cook without a lid, a large amount of heat escapes into the air. As a result, your stove has to work harder and use more energy to maintain the right temperature.
According to a study by the French Agency for Ecological Transition (ADEME), using a lid can reduce kitchen energy consumption by 25–30%.
