Conventional Ovens
-
Conventional ovens, which can operate on electricity or gas,
incorporate
two heating elements -- one for baking and roasting and another
for broiling.
-
To compensate for uneven heating patterns, some ovens cycle the
top element on during baking for more even browning.
-
The self-cleaning feature probably is the most-requested option
for both wall ovens and ranges.
-
Combination ovens are available that pair conventional oven
cooking with microwave cooking or convection cooking.
Convection Ovens
-
Convection ovens use thermal heat much like conventional ovens
but circulate the heated air with an internal fan for faster,
more even cooking.
-
With circulated air, more of the oven space can be used and
preheating time is shortened.
-
The downside of forced-air circulation is that some foods can
dry out or overbrown during cooking if not covered; fan noise
also is a consideration.
