Cooking can often, quite literally, be considered playing with fire. Whether dealing with high flames while searing or hot temperatures in the oven, cooking requires temperatures that the human body cannot come into contact with. Thankfully, materials that protect against the heat exist, and there are countless options for gloves and pads to handle hot dishes while cooking. Whether padded cloth or silicone, here are some of our favorite choices.

Measuring almost 15 inches long, these gloves further the protective layer beyond your wrists for even more safety.
