Detailed explanation-1: -The main purpose of an oven mitt is, of course, to protect you from hot surfaces while cooking. Whether you’re moving hot pots around on the stove or pulling baking dishes out of the oven, a reliable oven mitt will protect your hands, preventing burns.

Detailed explanation-2: -For one, a tea towel is more likely to be wet than an oven glove, and as we know water won’t stop heat at all. Also, because you have to fold a tea towel to provide the necessary protection, there is high chance that your hand will slip.

Detailed explanation-3: -The primary function of oven mitts and gloves is to protect hands from some of the extreme heat encountered in a commercial kitchen when reaching into a hot oven, carrying scalding hot sheet pans directly removed from that oven, or even dropping a freshly cut potato into a fryer tank of bubbling oil.

Detailed explanation-4: -Make sure to use dry oven mitts and potholders to prevent scalding or burns. Use the stove’s back burners whenever possible and turn pot handles inward to reduce the risk of pots being knocked over.
