You may not know that ovens have these functions, right?
Nowadays, many young people like to cook some delicacies, such as cakes, pizza, cookies, etc.
Many friends saw the baking works posted by their friends and bought an oven on a whim to practice their skills to satisfy their curiosity about baking and dream of becoming a baking master one day.
When I first bought the oven, I would seriously learn to bake, watch various food videos, and follow the recipes step by step. I did make some pretty good baking works, and then post them on WeChat to show off.
And then... put it aside and even ignore its existence.
Some people also find after buying it that they don’t have much time to make it, and the result of the product is unsatisfactory. Even if they are made according to the recipe, the taste and texture are quite different.
Over time, I lost my passion for baking, and eventually the oven became just a decoration.
The oven is a common appliance in every household nowadays. Will you regret it after buying it?
This is also a question that many friends have. They are afraid of buying it and turning it into a display. Let me talk about my feelings below.
I bought an oven three months ago. In fact, I had wanted to buy an oven before the epidemic. At that time, I had been debating whether to buy an oven or a microwave oven because I had just finished renovating my house and I didn’t have much spare money.
After careful consideration, I chose a microwave oven.
During the epidemic, I couldn’t stand it when I saw everyone making all kinds of oven-cooked delicacies.
I followed the trend and bought a small oven. Since buying the oven, the dishes at home have changed. I can always taste new products, and I feel that my happiness has improved a lot.
Because I have never been exposed to baking and I am quite busy at work.
So I usually use the oven to make tarts, cupcakes, pizza, donuts, roasted sweet potatoes, and roasted chicken wings.
These are relatively simple oven delicacies, and they are also popular among children. My children enjoyed eating them very much.
The children also have one more fun. They often gather around me and participate in making my oven delicacies. I have to say that the oven is really a very good tool for coaxing babies.
Friends who say they regret buying an oven probably bought it with a dream of baking. Later they found that baking was too troublesome and they fell into disuse after using it a few times.
But they overlooked that the oven actually has other uses.
1. Cooking in the oven The oven can also be used for cooking, such as Orleans grilled chicken wings, grilled fish, tinfoil scallops, roasted chicken and roasted duck, all of which are delicious.
Moreover, the texture and taste of food baked in the oven are completely different from those of steaming, stir-frying, and cooking, and the method is also very simple.
As long as we process the ingredients we bought, put them in the electric oven, and adjust the baking temperature and time, we can enjoy delicious food without going out to buy them, and eat healthier at home.
Not only is there no fumes to pollute the kitchen, but you can also enjoy homemade roast chicken and duck with confidence.
2. Food processing: It is quite convenient to use an electric oven to make tarts, pizza, biscuits and bread.
If baking is too troublesome, you can buy some semi-finished products and process them a little before they are ready.
Many bakeries now sell frozen semi-finished products.
Bring back the purchased egg tart crust, pizza dough, and bread dough, add some ingredients to them according to your preference, and bake them in the oven.
Delicious and delicious egg tarts, pizza, and burgers are easily prepared.
Especially suitable for office workers who don’t have much time to bake.
It not only saves time, but also satisfies your baking heart.
3. Fermentation function: The temperature is lower in winter and the dough is not easy to ferment.
You can use the fermentation function of the oven to help the bread rise.
The operation is also very simple. Place the kneaded dough in the middle of the oven and cover it with a wet cloth. Then put a basin of hot water in the oven to increase the humidity. Finally, adjust the fermentation time (30-40 minutes) and the temperature required for fermentation.
(For example, 30 degrees), just watch the dough until it doubles in size.
In addition to fermenting dough, the oven can also ferment yogurt.
4. Dry food: Foods such as melon seeds and biscuits that are usually eaten at home will become more or less damp after being left at home for a period of time, which will affect the taste and storage time of the food.
We might as well use an electric oven to heat the damp food to dry out the moisture in the food, so that it can be restored to the state it was in when we first bought it, while ensuring that the taste of the food is not lost.
Therefore, whether you regret buying an oven or not will vary from person to person. Some people will regret it and some will not.
See if you make the most of it after buying it.
In fact, there are many uses for ovens. Friends who own ovens are advised to explore its advantages and use them more, and don't let it become a decoration.
If it is for home use, it is recommended to buy an oven of about 38L. If it is too large, it consumes power and takes up space. If it is too small, it will heat unevenly and it will be difficult to control the heat.
