What is an "oven glove"?

An oven glove, also known as oven mitt, is a protective garment worn on the hand and forearm to handle hot cookware or bakeware safely. It typically consists of thick, heat-resistant fabric or silicone material that insulates the hand and forearm from high temperatures. Oven gloves often have a padded interior lining for extra protection and may feature textured surfaces or grips to prevent slippage. They are used to safely remove hot pans, pots, or baking trays from the oven, as well as to handle hot dishes or utensils on the stovetop or grill.
