Worth adding to the Balmuda The Toaster

Add-ons owners of this kind of oven actually use: descaler, the right pans, a thermometer. Affiliate links, at no cost to you; they never affect rankings.

Durgol Swiss Steamer descaler

A general-purpose steam-oven descaler, for ovens whose manual allows a generic one (Anova says any descaling liquid works). Miele and Thermador name their own descalers; use those instead.

TempPro instant-read thermometer

Steam cooks faster than you expect. A one-second probe stops you overcooking fish and chicken while you learn.

View on Amazon · ~$15
If You Care unbleached parchment roll

Cut to the size of any tray. Stops fish and dough sticking to perforated pans.

View on Amazon · ~$6
Gorilla Grip silicone oven mitts

Steam burns through cloth mitts. Silicone does not soak, which matters when you open a door full of vapor.
