Most apartments in my neighborhood have the nifty new gas stoves with
electronics. I've been offered one since I've lived here so long but
I've resisted. My old one (with pilot lights) works fine and I can
cook during power outages unlike my neighbors. Here, I am hooked up
to the city supplied natural gas. That has never gone out.

My pilot-lit oven also maintains the perfect temperature to make
yogurt and to dehydrate vegetables overnight.
