and the deep fat fryer is more common, and a deep fat fryer is a lot less likely to catch fire as they are thermostatically controlled, so overheating is less of an issue. Very few hobs have proper temperature control that regulates the temperature of the pan not just the mark/space ratio of a normal electric hob or the gas flow of a gas hob, my Gran's 80's Belling Format 600 had one hob where the number on the dial represented a temperature the pan would be kept at (though it didn't specify what they were) with a round sensor in the hob that obviously detected the temperature. It was great as you could get perfect simmering easily knowing that lid on or off made no difference.
There's nothing here!
