How I use my Samsung Dual Cook Flex Oven

OK, I know what you’re thinking. An oven is an oven right… Well at least that’s what I thought before I had the genuine pleasure of using the Samsung Dual Cook Flex Oven (wow, that’s a mouthful). But I was so wrong. If you’ve followed me on Instagram for a while you might have seen our old oven. An old and tired appliance used for years when this house was rented. We knew immediately we wanted to change the oven when we bought this house. But, as we’d just bought our first home, got pregnant and had absolutely no savings left, we figured it would be best to wait a few years until we renovated the kitchen. 

Three years later and I forgot what it was like to cook in an oven that actually ran at the temperature you set it. Gone are the days of obsessively checking your food every 2 minutes to make sure it’s not burnt. I ruined so many frozen pizzas in that oven. In fact the first time we ate pizza cooked in the new oven it was like a revelation! I forgot that pizza could be cooked in the middle and not rock hard around the outside. 

Our old oven actually made me fall out of love with cooking in a major way. I’ve never been really into baking, but I’m a tryer. Every single thing I tried, that oven created a disaster. It was disheartening and I just stopped making anything at all. The Samsung Dual Cook has given me more confidence to start cooking and baking from scratch again. In fact I made bread for the first time (without a bread maker doing all the work for me) for this video (that’s confidence right there.) It was perfect! And delicious. And actually really easy. I’ll link the recipe I used later. 

I’ve been making Ollen carrot and courgette muffins for over a year now. The first time I baked them in the Dual Cook they were fluffier and tastier and more evenly cooked. He couldn’t get enough of them! Neither could I! Basically what I’m saying is having this oven has actually made cooking a worthwhile experience again. Rather than something with very mediocre results every time.

I guess for anyone who knows anything about cooking all this is pretty basic. A good oven will cook better food. That’s simple. What makes the Dual Cook really special is the option to cook at two different temperatures in a standard sized oven. This very clever design gives you the option of using the whole oven as one, or splitting it into two. Once the dividing tray is in place you can use the top or bottom oven on it’s own, both at separate temperatures. Another possibility is using the bottom over with the top grill. It gives you so many options if you’re cooking a lot and the ability to reduce your energy use if you’re not. 

Most days we’ll use just the top oven, but the more we’re baking the better this oven gets. There’s no need to time our baking around meals. I just pop our latest culinary creation in the bottom oven, set the timer and forget about it. My mother always told me not to open the oven while baking (no idea why – I just know it is bad). But now I can still use the top of the oven without breaking this cardinal rule!

    I usually cook in a Nuwave oven. But the main advantage of the Samsung dual-cook oven is the display panel because it is programmable. Also, the oven is easy to clean. But the only problem is with the oven door, as it gets hot while baking at a high temperature.

    The author initially believed that all ovens were the same until they had the opportunity to use the Samsung Dual Cook Flex Oven. They had previously used an old and worn-out oven in their rented home, which they were eager to replace when they purchased their own home and also choose like this one there. However, due to financial constraints after buying their first home and starting a family, they decided to wait a few years until they renovated their kitchen before investing in a new oven.

    This comment is a relatable story about underestimating the value of a high-quality oven, specifically the Samsung Dual Cook Flex Oven. It’s interesting to hear the writer’s personal experience and how upgrading to this oven made a significant impact on their cooking experience and their studies show the quality work. It’s understandable that buying a new oven may not be a top priority when purchasing a new home, but investing in a quality appliance can make a noticeable difference in daily life. Overall, it’s a useful reminder to not overlook the importance of investing in reliable and efficient appliances, even if they may seem like a minor detail in the grand scheme of things.
