To me, someone who celebrates a bit more of the spectrum than most: Metal hot. Make food hot.
Non-stick means easier cleanup, but my wife seems to think cast-iron is necessary for certain things (searing a prime rib roast, for example.).
After I figure those out, then I gotta figure out gas vs. electric vs. induction vs infrared…
May be a little expensive but they sell batteries to run a home, usually in connection with solar but doesn’t have to be. You should be able to handle a power outage for a day or two (and after that is when it’s great have solar to recharge them).
For a house in town it’s likely expensive but you also are less likely to have long outages. For a rural house it may be cheaper than the alternative of propane
Tbf I’ve never had to go more than a couple of hours without power. Which is good because a couple of days of power with heating could be couple hundred kilowatt hours once I actually replace my wood furnace with a heat pump. Right now I just have one air to air heat pump to help out, but eventually air to water is needed. Can’t do ground source unfortunately.
Solar doesn’t really do anything here in the winter when the batteries would likely be drained. We get like 6 hours of daylight and you it’s almost always overcast all day. It’s great in the summer though, assuming said batteries can be drained to sell to the grid when power is expensive and recharged when the prices are too low to sell to the grid.
