The invention discloses a gas stove control method based on a pressing type rotary knob. The method comprises the following steps that a spinning signal is obtained, a gas stove is driven to be started and enters a timing mode according to the spinning signal, the timing mode comprises a point-pressing continuous-time mode, a point-pressing turning-off mode, a continuous-time-turning-off mode, a turning-off-continuous-time mode or a constant-time mode; in the point-pressing continuous-time mode, the turning-off time can be automatically updated according to the point-pressing signal; in the point-pressing turning-off mode, the gas stove is driven to be closed or started according to a pressing signal; in the continuous-time-turning-off mode, the gas stove sequentially enters the point-pressing continuous-time mode and the point-pressing turning-off mode, or sequentially enters the point-pressing turning-off mode and the point-pressing continuous-time mode; and in the constant-time mode, the gas stove does not respond to the point-pressing signal. By means of the gas stove control method, most of operation can be realized only by pressing the rotary knob, mechanical abrasion of a cock valve caused by rotating the rotary knob is greatly reduced, the service life of the gas stove is prolonged, the gas leakage amount is reduced, and the safety, convenience, practicability and reliability of the gas stove are improved.
