COOKING GUIDE
THE PRINCIPLES OF MICROWAVE COOKING
Microwaves are a form of high frequency radio waves similar to those used by a radio including AM, FM
and CB.
Electricity is converted into microwave energy by the magnetron tube. From the magnetron tube,
microwave energy is transmitted to the oven where it is reflected, transmitted and absorbed by the food.
Reflection Microwaves are reflected by metal just as a ball is bounced off of a wall. For this reason,
metal utensils are not suitable for use in the microwave. A combination of stationary interior walls and a
rotating metal turntable or stirrer fan helps assure that the microwaves are well distributed within the
oven cavity to produce even cooking.
Transmission
Microwaves pass through some materials such as paper, glass and plastic much like sunlight shining
through a window. Because these substances do not absorb or reflect the microwave energy, they are
ideal materials for microwave oven cooking containers.
Absorption
During cooking, microwaves will be absorbed by food. They penetrate to a depth of about 3/4 to 1 1/2
inches.
Microwave energy activates the molecules in the food (especially water, fat and sugar), and heat is
produced. If you vigorously rub your hands together, you will feel heat produced by friction. The internal
cooking of larger foods is done by conduction as the heat which is produced by friction is conducted to
the middle of the food. Foods also continue to cook by conduction during standing time.
