1, heating principle is different.

The heating principle of electric oven: electrify the resistance wire to heat, convert electric energy into heat energy, raise the temperature in the oven, and then bake the food until it is cooked. This process is from the outside to the inside.

The heating principle of microwave oven: After electrifying, electric energy becomes microwave, which spreads to food through the air in the oven, and then makes every molecule in the food thermally move, thus making the food heat and mature. This process is from the inside out.

2. The baking effect is different.

The heating mode of the oven will not destroy the original delicious taste of the food, but also retain the moisture and nutrients contained in the food. Cooked food is crispy outside and tender inside, which is more suitable for oriental tastes. The main function of microwave oven is to heat quickly, and the water in food itself will be lost during heating. So the food cooked in the microwave oven is hard to taste.

Microwave ovens are mainly used to heat food quickly, which can save a lot of time. For many office workers, microwave oven is the best choice. Besides, the microwave cookbooks provided by Shi Jun can also make many delicious dishes by using the cooking methods and skills specially designed for microwave ovens. This oven is not suitable for heating food. Generally, it is twice as long as a microwave oven and consumes a lot of power. It is only suitable for baking food. Bread, cake, pizza, barbecue and many other delicious foods can be cooked.

4. Use different precautions

Microwave ovens are not easy to color the surface of food, so you can coat seasoning on the surface of food before cooking to make it dark brown. At the end of heating, putting the food for a period of time or adding some seasonings to some foods can achieve satisfactory results that cannot be achieved by heating. If the food has hard skin, it must be peeled before microwave.

Before baking any food, the oven needs to be preheated to the specified temperature to meet the baking time in the recipe. It takes about 10 minutes to preheat the oven. If it is insufficient, the specified temperature may not be reached. If the preheating time of the oven is too long, it may also affect the service life of the oven.

Extended data:

There are two kinds of household ovens: small desktop ovens and embedded ovens.

Desktop oven

The advantage of desktop oven is that it is very flexible, and you can choose ovens with different configurations according to your needs. Due to different quality and configuration, the price ranges from several hundred yuan to several thousand yuan. Foreign brands are usually more expensive, while domestic products are more cost-effective. Many foreign brands are also OEM in China. It is recommended to choose the "non-greasy liner" model, which is cleaner after long-term use.

Embedded oven

The other is the embedded oven, which is an upgraded version and the ultimate version of the small oven. Because of its high power, fast baking speed, good sealing (generally sealed with rubber gasket), good heat insulation (heat insulation with three layers of tempered glass) and accurate temperature control, it is loved by more and more people. At the same time, due to the pursuit of health in 2007-20 13, more and more middle-class families noticed this problem and began to eat their own baked food because there were too many food additives in the cake shop outside.

Type selection

Simple household electric oven

This product was put on the market at an early stage. Its structure is that a flaky far-infrared radiation electric heating element or electric heating wire is installed in the shell made of metal sheet, and a sliding door made of double-layer sheet is installed to directly connect the 220V power supply. Power can't be adjusted and temperature can't be controlled. When baking food, the time can only be mastered by experience, or the temperature can be mastered by turning on and off from time to time, which is inconvenient and difficult to master. Baked food is either raw or burnt. Products such as 20 13 have been gradually eliminated.

Ordinary household electric oven

It is a common variety in 20 13 market, including automatic temperature regulation, automatic timing and automatic temperature regulation timing products. This electric oven is mainly composed of a box, an inner cavity, a heating element, a temperature controller, a timer and accessories such as a power cord, a baking tray, a baking net, a handle fork and the like. The surface of the shell is sprayed with colored amino baking paint, and the inner cavity is detachable. The grilles on both sides can adjust the height of the baking tray and baking net as required. Most oven doors adopt spring structure, with high-temperature tempered glass transparent window in the middle.

The heating elements include metal tubular heating elements, opalescent timely glass heating elements and flaky far infrared radiation heating elements. The thermostat on the panel is the control system of the electric oven, and its working status is displayed by red and green indicator lights. The thermostat adopts bimetallic temperature control elements, and the timer is generally mechanical. Some electric ovens also have power switches, which can control the surface fire and the bottom fire respectively, so that different temperatures can be obtained.

Advanced household electric oven

20 13, an advanced electric oven, is rare in the market. It is different from the ordinary electric oven, with more rigorous structure, more beautiful appearance and more complete functions. The shell is made of stainless steel sheet and adopts three-layer double-cavity structure, which greatly reduces the temperature of the shell. In terms of control, in addition to the function of ordinary electric oven, there is also a low temperature stall with a temperature of only 36℃, which is specially used for yeast fermentation. Equipped with "strong" and "weak" switches to control the temperature fluctuation range and flexibly grasp the degree of scorch of baked food. In addition, the timer can whistle in time to reflect the baking results in time.
