cooking gas

Burner's invisible flame

Cooking gas is fuel used for stovetops and ovens, typically natural gas or propane delivered through pipes or tanks.

The term distinguishes gas used for cooking from gas used for heating or other purposes: The apartment includes cooking gas in the rent.

In some regions, cooking gas refers specifically to bottled propane or butane sold for household use.
