If you enjoy eastern cuisine, you can buy a speciality hob with a wok burner. Similarly if you are a BBQ fan, choose a BBQ grill. If you are left handed, go for front rather than right hand side controls as this eliminates the risk of reaching across the heat. If you cook for a large family, more than four rings may be useful, and if you have young children it may be worth considering paying a little extra for a hob guard or in the case of gas, choosing an automatic re-ignition or cut off device should the flame blow out.

When you want to slice foods, such as: onions, celery stalks, potatoes, carrots, etc., hold the items together with one hand and pivot the knife at it's tip and hold the blade at a 95' towards the hand holding the items, always keeping the tip of the knife in contact with the cutting surface
