conventional ovens

Non-microwave cooking boxes

Conventional ovens are standard kitchen ovens that cook food by heating air inside an enclosed chamber, as opposed to microwave ovens, which use electromagnetic radiation.

The term distinguishes traditional baking and roasting appliances from newer technologies: Preheat a conventional oven to 375°F.

Convection ovens, which circulate heated air with fans, are sometimes grouped with conventional ovens and sometimes contrasted with them.
