Here are some simple habits to adopt:
✅ Always cover your pots and pans while cooking.
✅ Match the flame size to the pan: a large flame under a small pot = wasted gas.
✅ Turn off the burner 3 to 5 minutes before the end of cooking, especially for simmered dishes, rice, or pasta. Residual heat will finish the job.
✅ Use cookware with thick bottoms, which retain heat better.
💡 Bonus: More Natural Tips to Save Gas
🌿 Soak legumes (beans, lentils, chickpeas) the night before to shorten cooking time.
🍳 Opt for steaming or slow cooking, which requires less time and energy.
🧊 Thaw frozen food before cooking to make cooking faster and more efficient.
