Right after watching a cooking show or a how-to video for your favourite recipe, you go ahead and get all the ingredients you need. And like the cooking enthusiast you are, you followed the recipe to the t. And yet, the recipe didn’t turn out exactly the way you wanted to because the appliances used to cook were very different. Yes, the cooking appliances you use make a lot of difference and can transform the result of your dinner spread as well as the cooking experience.
You may have heard people talking about various kitchen appliances and which one is the best. In this blog, we are going to decode the difference between an OTG and a Microwave oven and tell you which one you should be getting.
First, let’s understand what both of these appliances are.
What is a Microwave oven?
The invention of microwave ovens has significantly revolutionized the way we cook in modern kitchens. Not only do they provide a speedy way to heat meals, but they can also help you quickly tackle those time-consuming tasks like melting butter or heating water. With a microwave oven, you can get your cooking done in no time and spend more time enjoying your delicious creations!
What is an OTG?
You may wonder if OTG is something too technical in the cooking world but it stands for Oven Toaster and Griller. The capacity for these generally ranges between 19 litre and 40 litre OTG. It’s the perfect kitchen appliance for baking, grilling, and barbecuing your favorite foods. And the best part? It’s more compact and portable than traditional ovens, making it a convenient addition to any kitchen. With its metal coils that convert electricity directly into heat, the OTG ensures your food is cooked thoroughly and evenly. So, when it comes to cooking your favourite meals, the OTG is a must-have!
Now that you know what these appliances are and what they can do, let’s compare them based on usage, cooking time, and power consumption.
Usage: If you’re looking for an appliance that can perfectly bake a cake, an OTG is the way to go. With an OTG, you can hone your cooking skills and be satisfied with the results. While a microwave can’t match an OTG’s baking and grilling results, it’s great for cooking food quickly.
Power consumption: Did you know that OTGs consume less electricity than microwaves? Yes, it’s true! BOSS Delish OTG oven 19 ltr with 1380 Watt powerful motor and even has Thermostat with Automatic Shut Off Timer feature that turns off the appliance after cooking without consuming extra energy. So if you’re looking for an energy-efficient and convenient cooking option, an OTG might just be the winner over a microwave.
Cooking in an OTG takes longer because of heated coils, but BOSS DELISH OTG 40L has stainless-steel housing that provides uniform heating for better and faster results. Plus, it offers multiple cooking modes like Bake, Broil, Toast, Rotisserie, Convection, Grill & Stay on, which can keep your food warm while you finish other tasks. On the other hand, microwaves use micro radiation for quick heating, making the cooking time shorter, but again it doesn’t have a lot of versatile features, unlike a 40 litre OTG.
In conclusion, OTG and microwave ovens have unique features and benefits. It ultimately comes down to what you need from your kitchen appliance. If you’re looking for an energy-efficient option that can also provide versatile cooking options and perfectly baked cakes, then the BOSS Delish OTG oven is the way to go. Its powerful motor, automatic shut-off timer, and multiple cooking modes can transform your cooking experience and help you create delicious meals every day.
