Everything I have seen has said that induction is the fastest, followed by traditional electric, and then gas is the slowest.
I’m also dubious about this “instant control of heat”. Why wouldn’t turning an induction stove off be the same thing? They both stop heating the pan, and then the only heat left is what’s in the pan. The big difference being that the gas option has heated up the room as well, because it shoots heat all over the place, while the induction stove only heats the pan directly. Electric I get, it’s going to hold some heat in the coil, but I don’t see how induction differs from gas in this regard.
Common sense will tell you heat control is instant, just think about it. If you turn the gas off boom no more heat and nothing but the pan itself to hold heat. Unless you’re using car iron is as instant as it gets
Common sense will also tell you that if the magnetic field stops fluctuating in an induction stove top, that the heat being added to the pan will also instantly stop.
Yes, I don’t see why they think stopping a magnetic field to stop heating a pan is different than stopping a fire to stop heating a pan, it’s not like it’s still happening after it’s stopped.
Don’t induction pans have these thick bottoms, which are simply more mass that needs to be heated up? That always took longer than gas with a thin pan for me.
Quick no one tell them almost every restaurant in existence uses gas…
gas does have some possible toxic effects if not properly vented.
BUT it heats 10 times faster and allows almost instantaneous control of the heat…( the reasons kitchens use it)

Induction is faster and more responsive than gas.
