II. INTRODUCTION TO MICROWAVE COOKING
How a microwave works
Microwaves are a form of energy similar to radio and television waves and regular
daylight. Everything radiates microwaves – kitchen sink, coffee pot, even people. But
microwaves spread through the atmosphere and disappear without effect. MW is designed
to utilize the microwave energy. Electricity is transformed into MW energy in magnetron
and microwaves proceed through the openings in the walls of the oven into the food
preparation space. Microwaves can not penetrate the microwave walls but can penetrate
materials such as glass, porcelain and paper, thus materials of which the ware for
microwave food preparation is made. Microwaves do not heat the dishes but the dishes
may be heated by the heat of the heated food. Microwaves are drawn by moisture in the
food where they cause vibration of the molecules of water 2450 times per second. The
molecules rub against each other and create friction which causes the heating of the food.
Very safe appliance
MW oven is one of the safest home appliances. If the door is opened, the MW
automatically stops its operation.
Factors affecting the cooking time
The cooking time is affected by several factors. The temperature of food and ingredients
used for cooking causes big differences in the cooking length. E.g. food preparation
with ice-cold food will last substantially longer than preparation of the same food with
ingredients whose temperature is room temperature. The cooking time is also affected by
the set power.
III. HOW FOOD QUALITIES AFFECT MICROWAVE COOKING
Food density
Light, porous foods such as pastry and bread are prepared faster than heavy, dense foods
such as roast. When preparing porous foods in MW oven, make sure the outer parts do not
dry and crispen. Cover the outer parts with foil (for MW ovens) or cook at low power.
