oven mitts
Baker's hand protection
Oven mitts are thick, insulated gloves used to handle hot cookware—pans, baking sheets, casserole dishes.
They protect hands from burns when reaching into ovens or handling items fresh from the stovetop.
Unlike potholders, which are flat, oven mitts enclose the hand and often extend partway up the forearm: I grabbed the oven mitts before pulling the roast out.
