1. Match pot size to the burner:
Using a tiny pot on a big burner wastes energy. Always use the right-sized cookware.
2. Cover your pots when cooking:
Lids trap heat and speed up cooking, which helps cut gas use.
3. Use leftover heat:
Turn off the stove a few minutes before your food is done. Residual heat can finish the job.
4. Keep your stove in good shape:
Check gas lines and burners regularly for leaks or wear. Well-maintained stoves are safer and more efficient.
5. Cook with a pressure cooker:
It cooks food faster and uses less gas by building steam and pressure.
By following these simple tricks and giving your stove a little TLC, you’ll not only stretch your gas usage but also see a real difference in your monthly bills. Start today and enjoy a more energy-efficient kitchen!
