Getting used to a new range - any tips?
We just moved and I've gone from a teeny apartment-sized range to one that's pretty spacious and HOT. Both are gas, and I try to look at the size of the flame rather than the setting on the knob, but there's such a difference. This new range's 6 is equal to 10 on my old one (I think!). I can't even fathom the oven which is way hotter. And oddly, the broiler is less hot! Any tips for adapting to a new range?

Get an oven thermometer.

Sounds like you and your new range just need to spend some more time getting to know one another. You'll get a feel for each other soon enough. :)

Get some good pots and pans.
