Yes, I think current models of both gas and electric stoves are pretty
good. I prefer gas for its speed and responsiveness, especially for
Chinese cooking. But I had to use an electric stove for several recent
years and found it was possible to get decent results with a little
extra work and attention. You put the largest burner on high and leave
it there, then regulate the wok's temperature by moving it off and on
the burner. -aem
