Perhaps it was the cabin fever that got you to fish out that baking oven that has been sitting in your kitchen for some time, alongside your handy skills to bake a perfect, warm and sweet banana bread. No need for the doubt – when there’s a will, there’s a way! Yet while you sift your flour, mash your bananas and turn to preheat your oven, you may wonder, “Will a new baking oven in Singapore make my banana bread taste better?”
The answer is yes! When the process is better, the food tastes better! Here are some of our recommendations for the best baking ovens in Singapore.
Types of baking ovens in Singapore
Wait! Before you grab the wallet, consider the different types of ovens that should cater to your needs best.
1. Convection oven
A convection oven generates and distributes heat using the fan and exhaust system installed inside it. When the cavity heats up, the fan helps blow hot air over and around the food, and the exhaust system vents it back out. This creates a convection current in the air, where heat is constantly circulated.
Because of the working mechanism of the convection oven, this allows food to bake quickly and evenly, while saving energy. It also allows you to bake more within the same time!
2. Electric oven
As the name suggests, an electric oven is powered by electricity. It has a heating element called a resistor that is installed within it. When you switch on the oven, the resistor generates thermal energy. The thermal energy is what creates heat in the oven cavity!
In general, an electric oven can range in sizes, so you can choose a model that is suitable for the space on your kitchen top. It is able to maintain heat evenly, and its insides remain dry throughout the baking process. Depending on the food you are making, the latter can be of benefit to you!
3. Gas oven
A gas oven bakes using a gas-fuelled burner. It requires a steady supply of combustible gas to function, such as syngas, natural gas, propane, butane, liquefied petroleum gas or other flammable gas.
Typically, the main burner is fixed on the bottom of the oven compartment, and radiates very intense heat upwards to bake your sweet (and savoury) treats. An advantage of a gas oven is that it heats up quickly, and you have greater control over the levels of heat. Most gas ovens also have stoves installed above them, so you can get a two-in-one package!
