But they must focus on teaching château vocabulary 🤣😉
@@johannabaumgartner I'm sure they will set up a special class for that :)
@@HowToRenovateAChateau „how not to kill your partner…“, orange kitchen, deer, intruder,….surveillance, storm, trees, boars, wallpaper…
Such a fun way to introduce the sponsership with the donkey talk. Well done guys :)
@@Tony-InLosAngeles For sure! I‘m not worried about Anna at all, she can defend herself….a strong, admirable woman!
It is actually quite impressive that Lily and Ella are being raised trilingual
english-french-german is such a solid trio, with Spanish classes they will conquer europe
I wouldn't say quite impressive..I would say it's brilliant... My daughter works as a teacher in Dubai and her pupils all come from many different places...even if they come with only one language she tells me by the end of the year they are all talking to each other in all of the languages...The sooner you start the better. Loved this vlog.
Those who speak many languages have many souls.
It is impressive. I was fortunate to be able to live in Zurich, Switzerland for a year and most people if not all spoke 4 languages. It's very common for Europeans..
AND that they try new unusual foods! Only 1 of my 3 children & 1 of my 5 g-children would ever do that! The others all mumble "she's always trying to make us eat weird stuff" (like this is their first day here) Gurr...
Your presentation of the town was so textured and casual, I could faintly smell the water and the scent from the ancient wood structures. The perspective of following Anna walking through the narrow streets brought me along with her.It wasn’t hard to imagine the people of days past, walking beside her.It felt like a Zeffirelli set. Well done Phillip.
Yes totally agree with you!!!
I was think how to express how wonderful this vlog was but then I read yours and thought WOW! This was perfectly said. Xxx
I'm so glad you guys decided to highlight your local town! When we recently did a tour of France and stayed at your Chateau, Honfluer was our absolute favorite place we visited! It is truly a special place!
Thanks Lissy!
Lossy Marie, You got to stay in the chateau??? I am jealous!!!
Gas!! Nothing beats gas!
Gas. You won’t regret it.
If you have not tried induction.
@@katehobbs2008 have induction right now. Missing my gas. I like to cook a lot with different pots (including a wok) and you just can't use most of them on induction 🤷🏻♀️
@@katehobbs2008 american, no clue what induction is, but cooks prefer gas
I am a new viewer having discovered your channel 3 days ago. In that time I moved from being mildly interested to HOOKED, having binge watched all of your blogs, and I couldn't be more satisfied. Your children are adorable, parents terrific, Nathan and Benoit talented and such good sports and you 2 are the BOMB! Looking forward to many more memorable adventures, best wishes for continued success.
Welcome on board!
Haha me too! Discovered it yesterday and have had it on constantly!
Anna, what is wrong with donkeys? Can’t wait to get one when we move in ‘23 along with my dream Lusitano horse :)
I think we need to up the ante in the paint colour debate. Going forward, every room painted green = 1 donkey added to the chateau. 3 more rooms (including passageways) painted green = 3 donkeys/1 motorbike. 1 room painted Orange = cancellation of a motorbike’s worth of green rooms.
deal! :)
Great ideas! We should all find such clever ways around implacable disputes.
@@Tony-InLosAngeles that’s why you leave decorating to the ladies 😂
How fun to be viewing this wonderful channel and out of it find someone with your same last name 😀☀️👌
For me, gas cooking has the greatest amount of control. My stove delivers different BTUs at each burner plus infinite adjustments. Gives me a lot of flexibility when I cook.
Yes. And you can still cook if the power goes out.
Only having had electric or gas stoves I love my gas stove top and in case of a power failure you will always be able to use gas.
Until gas runs out or your Country bans its use.
I really enjoyed this video. I felt as if I spent the afternoon in your town as your special guest. How lovely.
Glad you enjoyed it!
As for the scallop dish, this is probably what is going to get my wife hooked to your channel! It looked certainly very good and Philipp scored a lot of points with Anna. She truly looked like she was very pleasantly surprised and enjoying the flavours. As for me, as Philipp is putting the bar so very high for husbands, either I buckle up or I ban the channel.
I ban.
Thanks for answering my question about languages in such a hilarious (and business savvy) way.
That was a smooth freakin' ad transition.
Bien joué.
Ps. The images of Honfleur were absolutely solid, i had to switch to full screen, which i never do.
I live in Montreal right next to the Saint Lawrence river (and the Samuel de Champlain bridge), always fun to see the distant connection between our two homes.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks a lot for your compliments :)
While looking up your Honfleur location I discovered it is also the name of a municipality in Quebec. Not just a coincidence I am sure, Merci Monsieur de Champlain. Hello from Edmonton, AB, Canada,
@@johnlisasnyder1657 I live in Verdun, Montreal, quebec, half of everything here is named after europe, just like the US or Australia.
@@alex0589 Hi, yes I am well aware of that but not sure if Europeans know how prevalent it is here and this applied specifically to them.
I concur with your thoughts about the language introduction. I also thought it was hilarious and well done into the business aspect. 😂🎉❤
All their “adverts” are a gem to listen to because of the very funny segways into the subject via chateau happenings and people interactions.
Bravo team!
That church is amazing! I loved the model ships left by grateful parishioners.
I loved how Phillipp filmed the ships in beautiful afternoon light.
Ok I am sitting here feeling all the things… I am about to share way too much but I want you both to know how much your channel means. My husband was diagnosed w primary progressive MS a few years ago. So hard to see all that this has taken from him. One week after lock down he suffered bilateral pulmonary embolism which, oddly enough led to a colon cancer diagnosis. We spent the Covid lockdown dealing w that and chemo and MS all while caring for my husband’s 88 year old step mother. He is preparing today for his first colonoscopy tomorrow, the first since surgery so there is no small amount of anxiety today, although every reason to feel positive. In the midst of this, today my mother-in-law fell and is hospital as she injured her ribs. So feeling quite low I watched your weekly post and it was so beautiful. It filled me with hope and helped me to look past this moment w great anticipation of one day visiting the Chateau and the surrounding countryside. I know that you are not attempting to accomplish this type of impact but I wanted you to know how very much I appreciate you allowing us to share this journey w you! In joyful anticipation and with much gratitude- MAB
Thank you so much for your kind message, we all send our love and wish you and your family strength, courage and a fast recovery!
I had a rouff last 18 months too and I feel for you both! Hope your husband will be feeling better and his colonoscopy will look good. Keep up the good fight and take time yourself to have a bit of me time!
Sending many prayers to you and your family.
Love to you and your family. 💜
So sorry for all you are going through! 🙏🙏🙏 going out to you and your family. ❤
I know why chef's love gas, but a good induction hob is so powerful these days, it's fantastic. You have the same amount of control. Also its much easier to clean and keep safe with children. But most importantly, in light of climate change and Russia increasingly turning off European gas supplies, I think it's probably a wise move to be as free of gas and oil as possible.
Wow Jana, that is an interesting tidbit bit of info about Russia ....🤔
why not both?~
What countries please?
But unless France or most of Europe switch to renewable energy, electrical power sources would still rely on gas or fossil fuel to generate electricity to cook with induction cookers. Just saying. 🤩
@@e_moonstarstellar5666 most of the energy in France is produced by nuclear plants. So in terms of reluabilty and CO2 it is actually pretty good - storage of spent fuel remains a problem of course
Induction is much safer with kids around, I find that both are good but Inuction seems to be easier at controlling the cooking process.
That's just my opinion!
🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Gas, definitely. I am a very keen cook and baker, and having used both gas and electric for many years, I definitely favour gas. You have more control over the heat. I recently replaced my 19 year old Italian gas cooker with a new Italian gas cooker. When planning your kitchen layout, be sure to place the storage of the most frequently used items close to the dishwasher. Our drawers containing the everyday plates, bowls, cups, glasses and cutlery, are all a step or two away from the dishwasher. It makes it easier when the children are able to help with the unpacking of the dishwasher too. My baking bowls, utensils etc, are in drawers across from where the Kitchen Aid and Thermomix live, and I often think this was my most sensible planning idea. Also, make sure to have power outlets on at least one end of the island. Ours are in constant use for phone charging and assorted appliances.
The town is absolutely idyllic, and I’d love to visit someday. It looks like a fairytale. I love scallops, and would like to try the entree recipe. I have never cooked parsley in this way, but I’m very curious to try, and I would never have thought of the beetroot and sesame oil combination, however I trust Anna’s good taste 😁
Canadian here, living in Ontario on the Quebec border, and of course I knew that Samuel de Champlain was from France what I did not know was that he was he came from such a beautiful place.
Loved the visit to Honfleur, we were there in 2019, our last holiday. Loved the hidden garden, the streets, the shops, the restaurants, the harbour, the church, the market - everything !
We have used induction for about 10 years now and most of my extended family have as well. We all used Gas before but made the switch primarily because it was more efficient. We found that there are many advantages to induction such as safe for kids and pets and control of temp and cooking time. One of the biggest advantages over gas is induction is a million times easier to keep clean as nothing ever “cooks” to the surface and is easily cleaned away. For all of us, we would never choose anything else as there are far too many advantages to induction.
yeah, but you can't butter baste steak on induction, it does not heat the pan if you lift it off slightly to get the butter to pool at one end. We have induction, for most things it is great, but it is really not great for stir fry (wok), steaks, any food where you need to shake the pan (such as to mix vegetables). Most inductions hobs have digital buttons, instead of a physical dial, which is so much easier to adjust.
The town reminds me of Old Quebec City which shouldn’t be a surprise I guess. Nova Scotia has a lot of History of France and England fighting for the land here. There are still a couple of garrisons restored for tourism and in summer people dress in appropriate costume and do the work as it was done then. There are still many places with French names and cultural heritage as well. The French were helped by the Indigenous Mi’Kmaq people as many people died in their first winter here from starvation and scurvy.
FYI Glass originally could only be made affordably in small panes by taking a glob of molten glass on the end of a metal rod and spinning it. The centrifugal force would form a thin pancake of glass that would be trimmed square.
Thanks for the explanation!
I had an induction cooktop in my last home, sadly now have gas. Induction is just as fast as gas and just as adjustable BUT! To clean the induction top, you just give a quick spray and wipe and it is sparkling clean. With gas it is much harder to clean, you get blackening in all those nooks and crannies, your saucepans get black bottoms, the tops of the burner rings rust and corrode. Also with induction there is no risk of accidentally leaving an unlit burner slightly on. As a keen cook, I say induction every time.
Edit: reading the comments, it sounds as though people who strongly favour gas, have not used induction and are likening it to old-fashioned electric. If they have worked with induction they might comment differently.
This is what is drawing me to induction (see above reply) To be able to clean with a swift wipe over appeals hugely! But, I love the look of gas, especially as I'm switching to a range cooker. The choosing though, it's agony!
Earlier I replied that you should have both. Induction and Gas. Your kitchen seemes large enough. Each option has its own set of plusses and minuses. Having both will give you more options. Once you have six guest rooms, this may come in handy. Expanding to the out buildings may mean needing more kitchen cooking space.
I agree people confuse induction with electric and ceramic (which are woeful to cook on). Induction is amazing. And one final myth buster - we do cook stir fries on ours 😊
I can’t imagine cooking with anything but a gas stove, but I’d be fascinated to learn all about the features and benefits should you decide on an induction stove. Your plating skills are impressive my friend! Thanks kindly for the tour of Honfleur. I would have to drive 40 hours from Edmonton to Old Quebec City to see historical architecture.
Many thanks for the beautifull pictures of Honfleur…
Ahahahaha 😂 the transition into the ad was sublime! Love your humor!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I admire your stamina, determination, and taste. I inherited an old home designed & built by my dad, a once famous architect. It was his final home, where he retired. My mother left it in challenging condition when she reached 100 years of age. I've been spending the past two years patching, sanding, painting, stripping (etc) and still I'm not done. Keep it up! It's kind of wonderful to see it all come together, after imagining so much in one's mind, or after waking up and conceiving something fresh as one rises from 'dream world' with fresh energy. A lot of strong coffee, at least in my case, also helps.
I wish, if I were living in France, that I could also enjoy a fresh croissant with my morning coffee. Once, standing in line in Paris at an ATM a young male professional was getting cash, and holding a baby stroller. I peaked over the edge at the baby, and saw the cutest little face enjoying a freshly baked chocolate croissant - and wished, with all my heart, that in my next life I could be born as a baby in France.
From my experience, you need both induction and gas in a professional kitchen, cause with induction cooktops you could only use pans that are compatible with induction cooking, so no woks or copper pans. I personally prefer gas cookers cause they’re versatile and with a high btu and flame you could make stir fries quicker and you could use any type of pans on it. I think either gaggenau or Miele have induction cookers for woks, but it’s a big investment,and still you cannot achieve high temperatures that are needed for best results when cooking with carbon steel woks.
Induction! It’s faster and more responsive. Induction is the best.
Being Canadian, and a history buff; I love the connection between Honnefleur and Canada
Loved the tour of Honfleur, the church, alleyways, waterfront, etc. You both have a way of conveying the essence of an area in a short amount of time. Your recipes are mouth watering and your daughters are precious. I love how they will be fluent in three languages. Thank you for once again a great video and I hope you are having a nice vacation in your hometown Philipp. 💕
Glad you enjoyed it, Stephanie!
Inductions is like gas, Inductions reduces the risk of burn injuries and also less fire hazard.
Like everybody else here, I somehow stumbled onto one of your videos and now I am genuinely hooked!! I LOVE your chateau and enjoy watching your discoveries and progress as I am just as excited by history and all things home. And this episode, there is even a mini cooking lesson! Hahaha, I am actually going to try Phillip's scallop recipe for dinner with my partner!! Sending you guys all my love from the U.S.! :)
The music was sublime today. My husband is from a multilingual family. He is from Lugano, Switzerland. He was schooled in Italian.he spoke English at home. His grandparents only spoke German. And he learnt French at school. He now lives in Queensland, Australia and still these language skills have helped him on many occasions. Especially when we travel and with tourists.
Loved this video. The walk about in Honfleur was lovely and the music so well put together. Scallops looked delicious. Bon appetite 🥰
Glad you enjoyed it
I have jumped around and not watched the videos in sequence, but no matter it’s still so enjoyable I feel I can jump in anytime. Knowing how the kitchen turned out is so amazing especially the range.
Like you, I was unsure but now I could not live without my 7- ring induction hob. It is quick,safe and very easy to keep clean. Love it!
From A Chef Perspective, I would prefer gas, with the same reasons as Phillip gave, not to mention the flavor .. And yes, with a good pallet you can taste, & even smell the difference ..
Keep Doing What Your Doing .. Because What You Are Doing Is Nothing Like Any Other
I find it interesting how different countries are regarding kitchens. Here in Germany, gas hobs are a pretty rare thing in private households nowadays. Most people have either electric ceramic hobs or induction hobs. I've seen a gas hob twice in my life.
I grew up in Quebec City. Born just North East in Jonquière Quebec. I can tell you… your town is it’s twin 🌿 Well, none of our churches were that old!
Stunningly ancient 💕
Beautiful city❤️
For the feeling I think gas is super nice, but when getting used to it induction is just as nice… as well as more safe and efficient energy wise. Induction is the way to go I think especially when building a new kitchen
I wood go for induction. Heats up quick and are cold right away, easy to clean and safe for the kids. Beats everything, even gas , says someone who tested all kind of stowes.
If you are unsure, get both.
I love cooking and I have experiences with both, gas and induction. I thought for years, that nothing can beat gas, but that´s not correct. Induction is faster as gas and very easy to control. I love it.
I think that this is one of your best vlogs as it is so interesting all about Honfleur and it's history, such a beautiful town. Love seeing you two together enjoying yourselves together. Thank you for the journey and bless you and your beautiful family!
Funny that you asked for some advise whether you should go for a gas stove or an induction one. Funny because just the other day I was told by a chef that induction is the better choice. Because of the big plate you can slide the pans a little which gives you the opportunity to vary with cooking temperatures. However, an average induction plate takes about 8000 watts, which needs a heavy duty electrical supply.
Just the other week I discovered your project and the funny beautiful movies you make. I enjoy them a lot. Thanx.
And since Anna is starting to learn to speak German, werde ich nächstes mahl auf Deutsch antworten. 😜👍🏼
Scallops with beautiful handmade sauces that look like they came straight out of a really good restaurant, and then frozen pizza for the main entree. Sounds a lot like home cooking to me!
I was always a gas fan, however, after 8 years in an apartment with a Neff induction hob we moved - Our temp rental had gas and It really wasn’t as great as I remembered. We are in our own home now and it’s induction all the way.
Looking forward to the donkeys 😉
The scallops preparation definitely earned a "Thumbs up!"
Beautiful walking tour with excellent filming/photography. I could watch it several times (and probably will) just for the architecture.
That is a stunning fairy tale town, with a lot of history! Love it!
very smartly embedded ad
thanks so much.
If you're doing a lot of cooking for guests, induction cooktops are sooo much easier to clean. That's my bottom line. =)
The church is a masterpiece!
Induction is much faster than gas and far more efficient, cleaner and very easy to control.
Impressive cooking skills Phillip! Tasmania is well known for its fresh scallops. We are coming into summer, so scallops for Christmas! Honfleur looks like a beautiful town. No wonder you were keen to live there.
Lily is a consummate little actress!
I had always had a gas stove but bought a house that came with a normal electric stove with a glass top. I intended to replace it with gas but loved that the glass top was sooo much easier to clean. In the end I replaced it with a glass top induction, in part because I also installed solar. The burners heat up the pan in seconds and also drop the heat instantaneously, two of the things I loved about gas. One thing you can't do is wok cookery - induction needs a flat bottomed pan. Also, the pan must be magnetic (iron or steel) so copper doesn't work. For me the environmental implications of gas was important enough for me to switch to induction even though on mine I don't have the infinite control of gas. I think some chefs are switching for the same reason: if your brand is organic, seasonal, local then clean(er) energy is consistent with that.
I had always always used gas for the hob but moving to a new house 6 years ago I decided to go for electric as it would be easier to clean...and it is and it's no different in my opinion once you get used to it...which took about a day😊
There are very good induction compatible woks which work perfectly on induction and, mine is not flat bottomed just the same, rounded.
@@russdring2534 Thank you for sharing that. That is one thing I missed with my induction and now - problem solved!
Next January I will start renovating an 18th century Manor in the Champagne region. In my new kitchen I want to have both induction as well as gas. The gas mainly for Wok cooking and the induction for the rest. I was a absolute gas fan but in my latest Parisian apartment there was no gas and with a big disgust I had to start cooking with induction. Boy was I wrong....it's amazing how quick it heads up and cools down. I miss the gas for cooking asian wok food or for grilling bread or chestnuts..... You really should try induction!!!!!! Do you have city gas at the chateau? If you have you're lucky for I find bottled gas not as hot as city gas.
I really am a fan of you guys and am very much inspired by your decoration skills Anna...
Big fan here.......
I love gas too, and have it now, but will switch to induction when I get a new stove. In the US, gas is from fracked gas, not good for the environment. A family member switched from gas to induction, she’s a great cook, and loves her induction stove (cooker)
What a well created, lovely documentary/vlog video!!
Such a charming, beautiful and fun couple! Role model 🙏
Was wondering when you were going to show your viewers around Honfleur as it is such a pretty place.
What a beautiful video. Especially the sequence with the church and the piano music channeling Satie -- absolutely gorgeous. Thank you both for your brilliance!
That was the most elegant way to work in a sponsor yet! Ich habe Tränen gelacht! Merci beaucoup!
thank you! :)
Thank you for the tour, so beautiful! Induction for sure. Fast, very precise control and no harmful fumes or hot stovetop. Plus a nice excuse for buying good pots!
Really great episode...please consider reviewing your other local villages and towns. Your style is so informative but entertaining also. Loved the cooking segment. I say this new style episode is a full success. More please!
Noted! Thaks a lot!
Gas is beginning to be very expensive! I vote for induction.
It is really interesting to visit Honfleur with you guys. Being from Québec City, it felt like visiting the European version of my home town that was also founded by Samuel de Champlain. By the way, Québec is not Canada, it is part of it but Canada was mainly founded by the Brits. You should come visit Québec some day, it is quite the mix of cultures, just like your beautiful family.
Get gas AND induction plates that can be plugged in. Mary Barry uses them all the time of the Great American Baking show.
Really great video. I love learning the history of the area as well as the more personal stories of how life brought you to the chateau.
Beautiful and more beautiful, thank you for sharing the hidden treasures in Honfleur and the history of Samuel de Champlain. De Champlain is recognized and honored throughout Québec, bridges, parks, schools and multiples streets and highways. About the range, if you enjoyed cooking, go with gas. Induction is great, fast but a bit finicky...the pots and pans needs to contain enough iron atoms to create a magnetic field with the induction stovetop: yes to cast iron fry pans and most stainless steel pots, and no to aluminum, ceramic and no to those beautiful coppers pots and pans.
This episode was truly wholesome! Your portrayl of Honfleur brought me to tears somehow. Such magical serenity seems to be in this town.
What a charming town! Thank you for showing us around!
Great video! Was so interesting to see your town and it's amazing history - even the cobblestones! Would love to see more of the old places that you guys frequent.
Lovely to see Honfleur again! Induction WITH a gas burner somewhere for stir frying etc...and those times when the electricity cuts out; but remember you have to have the correct (steel or iron) pans, so those skillets you used today won't work (check with a magnet: magnetic = OK for Induction).
gas, If there is ever a power outage then at least you can cook on the stove.
as stated before a big advantage to gas is that you can use it if the power goes out. Also the simmer can go really low on a good gas stove.
This episode was really nice ✨💖
Honfleurs wooden church must be amazing standing in there to feel it!
Thank you for showing us this beautiful old town and your grand Chef 🧑🏼🍳 Kochkünste 😋😋
Glad you enjoyed!
Lovely to see more of your beautiful town! Also happy to see you all having some fun and enjoying the local bounty!
I absolutely LOVE this video. You two stole my heart long ago with your wit, charm and inventiveness, but now....history! Thank you for producing the best vlog on TH-cam!!!!
Honfluer is truly beautiful. Thanks for the tour.
Gas! Love it. And if you like cooking I really recommend cooking in Colombian ceramic pots (they are black). The food taste delicious and the pot look great on the table. I think I am going to copy your scallops recipe! It looked amazing!
Gas! It cooks more evenly and easy to adjust temperature to just the right level. And since you don't have a working fireplace in the kitchen, it can keep you from freezing and still allow you to prepare food if you have a power outage.
Been there, done that in the middle of a blizzard. Lol.
Got a new kitchen recently... GAS !!! For sure. Induction can never make a stur fry for more then 2 people. So, had for sure
There is something special about your chanel, guys! I just love it! ❤️Makes me so calm and happy. Keep up the good work! O, and I think - gas 😉.
Loved the tour of your beautiful town……more please.
Gas is always good if you have a lot of power outages.
Gas, can use even if the power goes off due to a storm.
Hello, we moved to France last year and refitting our kitchen was one of our first jobs, as we were opening a small Chambre d’hôte. I had always cooked on gas, however the village didn’t have it piped in, so we would have had to have calor gas. We made the scary decision to invest in a lacanche range with induction hob. Wow, I absolutely love it, it’s immediate, controllable, safe, clean and you get used to it very quickly. Only one drawback though, I had to buy all beautiful new pans. Oh well, we all have to make some sacrifices. Loving the videos, keep up the great work. Jo & Brian, la Maison en Champagne.
Thank you so much for your tip, we're also looking at Lacanche right now!
Absolutely "tight", Phillip! Meaning: the edit, the music, the subject matter, the pacing... the perfect use of the kids and their reactions... perfect moments with Anna... Every vlog always interesting and well-done, so what is it about this one that stands out? I can't put my finger on it, Phillip, but this particular show was...well... perfect! Great job! (Even though it didn't have Benoit in it... dang he's cute -- great to see him on the last one.) 🙃
Glad you enjoyed it, Trudi!
Great Vlog - one of your most entertaining. And The Sud Tirol is a fantastic place - spent a wonderful month in Bozen a few years ago. Keep up the good work chaps.
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome ! Was fun learning about the area and backgrounds. Amazing family. Thank you!
Thanks for the outing and tour. Stunning. You are so fortunate.
If you have a power out, you will be so happy to have gas ! The other night or area lost power for two hours but I could still make tea and fill hot water bottles !
Loved the city tour of Honfleur, beautiful pictures😍 I life in an old small middeaval town in Germany with many timbered houses and I love to see the different types of houses and techniques used around different regions
Loved it!, Both Philip and Anna are super creative when it comes to making vlogs!👍
Definitley gas. Oh my, those scallops looked so good! Thanks for the tour - what a heavenly place!
The scallops and, well everything looked amazing!
Stick with gas. I've used both, currently got induction. I find the top annoying in that if you drop spoons or a pot lid I cringe. Also, you can't toss pans or swirl on the heat - my staple is a souffle omelette and I can't do this on an induction. Both are instant heat, but I also find it convenient when we occasionally lose power in November storms to have a gas ring to heat food and water/a coffee pot.
Thanks for those tips!
@@HowToRenovateAChateau Forgot, you can't use copper pans on an induction. I bought a heat transfer plate to try use them, but it didn't work well. So if you plan to use copper, an induction is a no-go
Induction is the way to go. We have gas at home and induction at our holiday home and the induction definitely wins!
Wow so Impressed with the little town Beautiful old buildings Love the cobblestone streets .Really fresh to Get things right out the sea .
Honfleur harbour is magical. I breakfasted there some years ago when doing a tour of the gardens of Normandy with a friend. Although you played some music by Satie in your video you didn’t mention the incredibly quirky Erik Satie Maison museum. Surely a highlight of the town!? Otherwise, as always, an entertaining video from you both.
Loooved the Esel-bit!!!
About a flag, green ground with orange lions on it and apples might work. 😂
Gas! If the power is out you can light he burners manually
