Should the oven use gas or electricity?

1/ Gas oven:

True to its name, gas ovens use gas-heated fuel combined with electronic ignition and temperature gauges to help you control the internal temperature. The fire of the gas oven does not gather in the center of the kitchen, but divided to the rectangle along the body of the stove to bake food. The bottom of the kitchen has a tray for grease while baking. Some products also have automatic skewers, with steam compartments and hot keeper.

The advantage of this type of oven is that gas is a cheap fuel and some chefs like to show dishes that have uneven yellowness like grilling on real fire.

Typical ovens of this type can include oven models of Berjaya (Malaysia) or UNOX (Italy), MKN (Germany).

2/ Electric ovens:

The basic operation principle of electric ovens is to use two heat sources of the top and the bottom to uniformly grill all food surfaces. This type of oven gives a high temperature and stability (up to 3400C to 4000C) that helps chef perform any dish.

Currently, almost new models have integrated convective air circulation feature to distribute heat evenly for better grilled dishes. In addition, metal bars for chicken skewers can rotate evenly during grilling. Electric glass oven is also chosen by many people with the advantage for seeing clearly food inside and the size is quite compact. However, the price of glass ovens is quite higher than normal electric ovens.

The advantage of electric oven is a closed design, you can put it fit in anywhere and also easily adjust the temperature, the appropriate time to grill food. The insulation around the oven is quite good, ensure a stable temperature and increase safety. Another advantage is that electric ovens have a cheaper initial cost because there is no need to invest in a gas system, just plug in the electricity, but one thing you should consider is that the bill for electricity during operation can be higher than the gas one.

This type of oven is suitable to use in kitchen areas with limited area, you can take advantage of the space above and below the oven for other equipment, or you can stack multiple ovens together.

2. Convective oven:

The chef only needs to put the cake on one conveyor. The cake will be moved slowly into the grill. The combination of conveyor speed and oven temperature will be enough to grill the cake and produce the finished cake on the other side. Conveyor oven helps cooks save time, ensure the quality of finished products evenly.
