Oven temps

Water doesn't (legally) count as an ingredient. Salt does.

Hmm. The manufacturers *might* be able to sneak salt in if they used sea-water to make the pasta. Dunno (but if they did, they'd be advertising "made with seawater").

Not sure you are right. We see water or aqua mentioned in the ingredient lists of large numbers of large numbers of food products these days. Am wondering if the rues changed?

In medicines, we see even some bone dry tablets with an ingredient of water. Am pretty sure that is mandatory for them to declare that.

I don't have any gas in the house. I had the redundant gas meter removed when they recently proposed to charge meter rent. We have a double oven one with a fan and one without. And two microwaves. These are the most efficient. One is forty years old.

The hob is halogen.

The moment you walk into a house you can smell if they have a gas hob. Esp. if there is no hood. I suppose the inhabitants have got used to it and don't notice.

I think it's hard to clean most gas hobs, maybe some of the smell comes from burning spillages.

It's a damn sight easier to clean a gas hob than it is to clean the old- style "curly element" electrics. Or, indeed, many "solid plate" electrics.

Again I say - try an induction hob.

The induction hob never gets hotter than the bottom of the saucepan, most things just wipe off with a damp cloth.

If you don't want to spend a lot of money to find out whether they suit you, then Aldi occasionally have a single ring induction hob in store for a very reasonable price.

Though the Lidl and Aldi ones are much lower power than those in a full hob. So you only get a part of the full induction into induction.

Adrian put finger to keyboard:

Nice solution to the problem, but is it just me or does anyone else dislike the way the temperature markings at the extremes are inverted to be the "right way up"?

My mum has a Halogen hob. I hate it. Slow,shines in your eyes, and things burn on to it as it's hot.
