Consider 1: cooking method
Oven and steamer, one is baked and the other is steamed, and the food tastes very different. The food baked in the oven is more chewy, and the ingredients steamed in the steamer are softer and smoother. If a family is used to western food, bread and cakes, or prefers crispy food tastes, the oven is undoubtedly more practical. However, people who are used to Chinese diet and pay attention to health, especially those who have elderly people at home who need to nourish their stomachs, are still quite suitable for steamed vegetables, which are light, chewy and digestible. Steamers are more practical than ovens.
Consideration 2: Health.
The working principle of the oven is to use multi-dimensional baking tubes to heat food, which has a strong taste. The steamer is heated by high-temperature steam, which aims to keep the original flavor and light taste of the ingredients and keep the nutrition 100% in the ingredients. So in terms of health, the health of the steamer is better.
Consideration 3: Frequency of daily use
Judging from the frequency of daily use, using the oven requires a lot of preparatory work in the early stage. For busy people, it is just necessary to make nutritious and healthy meals in a short time, so the steamer is better. If you are a family that likes making cakes and bread and has more leisure time, you can choose an oven.
