Yes, I know it’s not technically just methane, but methane is its primary constituent.

“Fossil gas” is also probably a suitable term, but I like “fossil methane” because it gets that spooky chemical name benefit.

    I’ve got an induction stove in my new place and my biggest complaint is that it gets too hot. I sear steaks with it barely halfway.

    First time I tried to cook with it all the way up my apartment was filled with smoke.

      Could it be a calibration issue? My experience with modern stoves (for me, the oven) is that it was badly calibrated, so they oven never got properly hot

      Do you have the right pans? They’re probably not thick enough.

      Also, you don’t have to let them heat up much at all. It basically uses magic to just make the pan hot, like, instantly.
