In a microwave oven there is a high-frequency tube called a magnetron. This converts electrical energy into microwaves. These microwaves are distributed evenly throughout the oven interior, and rebound off the metal sides of the oven interior to reach the food from all sides. Microwave distribution is improved with the turntable engaged. In order f[...]

What can a microwave oven do? In the microwave oven, food can be cooked, reheated or defrosted quickly. You can use the microwave in the following ways: – Food can be defrosted, reheated or cooked by entering a power setting and a duration. – Deep-frozen, ready-made meals can be defrosted and then reheated or cooked. – The microwave oven can [...]

Microwaves – are reflected by metal, – pass through glass, porcelain, plastic and card, – and are absorbed by food. Material and shape The material and shape of containers used affect cooking results and durations. Heat distribution is more even in round and oval shaped flat containers than in rectangular containers, providing better results.[...]

Do not place aluminium foil dishes on the rack in case the dish sparks or arcs. If sparks occur, transfer food to a microwave-safe container. – Pieces of aluminium foil For even defrosting and to avoid overcooking unevenly shaped cuts of meat, poultry or fish, small pieces of aluminium foil may be used to mask wingtips or other thin parts for the[...]

Disposable containers, such as trays made from polystyrene, can only be used for very short, timed warming and reheating of food. Plastic boiling bags can be used for cooking and reheating.

The cover – prevents too much steam escaping, especially when cooking foods which need longer to cook such as potatoes. – speeds up the cooking process. – prevents food from drying out. – helps keep the oven interior clean.
