Gas and electric ovens both come with their own set of pros and cons. Gas ovens are generally more energy efficient than electric ovens, and in some cases may heat more quickly, but they can come at a larger upfront cost and some homes cannot accommodate them. Safety may also be something that you want to take into consideration. In households with small children, an electric induction oven that stays cool to the touch may be preferable to a gas oven with an open flame.
Single oven ranges feature one cooking compartment, providing all the features and applications you would expect - bake, grill, and sometimes convection settings. Double oven ranges consist of two separate cooking compartments, offering flexibility to use one oven to roast and the second to bake or grill simultaneously.
When buying an oven, you should focus on several factors. The capacity, or size of the oven, is essential depending on your family size or entertaining needs. Consider energy efficiency to save on utility bills. The type of oven is another significant consideration based on your cooking style and budget and this will determine your fuel type and whether it's built-in or freestanding.
Ovens come in several types. Gas ovens, renowned for their rapid heat and controllability. Electric ovens provide even heat distribution excellent for baking. Convection ovens combine heating elements and fans for rapid cooking, while steam ovens utilise steam to cook food, preserving nutrients.
To clean the inside of an oven, start by removing the oven racks. Create a baking soda paste by mixing a half-cup of baking soda with water. Apply the paste inside the oven and leave it overnight. Wipe out the oven with a damp cloth the next day and spray vinegar if necessary to remove residue.
For tough grease and stains, heavy duty oven cleaner can be used on select models. To see if this is suitable for your oven you'll need to consult the manufacturers instructions.
When looking for a new oven you should consider the fuel source, its size, the price and whether or not the oven is freestanding or built in. You’ll also want to look at factors like the oven's capacity, whether it has an internal or external grill and how wide the shelving is. Finally, you’ll want to take a look at the features it comes with; does it offer a self-cleaning function, different cooking settings, high temperature options? Make a list of must-haves in an oven as this will help you to find a suitable option.
The best type of oven for you and your household is totally dependent on your specific needs and cooking style. When choosing an oven, you should take into account whether your home has a gas connection point, the space you have available and your budget, as well as what is important to you - are you looking for something that will heat quickly? If so, you may consider gas over electric. Do you like to entertain, or are you usually only cooking for yourself? Big families and passionate bakers or home chefs may want to consider a large oven, or even a double oven, but if you’re usually only cooking smaller meals for one or two people, a smaller oven may suffice.
