Microwave cooking uses high
frequency energy waves to heat the
food. When cooking, microwave
energy causes food molecules to
move rapidly. This rapid movement
between the food molecules creates
heat, which cooks the food.

Running a microwave without a
load can cause serious damage to
electrical components. When food
is placed in the oven, microwave
energy generated by the magnetron
is absorbed by the food. When
no food is in the oven, there is
nothing to absorb the energy. The
energy bounces around the cavity
and is channeled back through
the waveguide. This can cause
arcing, fire and may burn out the
magnetron.
Is it safe to run a
microwave if it is empty?
How do you defrost
food while using a
commercial microwave?
How do you know if a
container is microwave
safe?
Not all commercial microwaves have
the defrost button that is commonly
found on a residential microwave. To
defrost, simply use 20% microwave
power level.
To test if a container is microwave
safe, place it in the microwave next
to a container of water that
is
micro-
wave safe. Run the microwave for
one minute. If the tested container
is warm or hot, it is not microwave
safe.
