How to operate a microwave oven

Microwave ovens make our cooking easier, and also provide people with today’s fast-paced lives with a more convenient way to eat. But can you really use a seemingly simple microwave oven? What’s wrong with using a microwave oven? What are the things you don’t know? Today I will answer them one by one for you.

First of all, before cooking or heating food in a microwave oven, remember to check whether the food utensils are suitable for microwave ovens. Unsuitable utensils often cannot withstand the high temperatures in the furnace and even release toxins that are harmful to the human body.

Food utensils are extremely important

1. Do not use metal utensils. Some consumers like to use metal utensils to hold food. Although they are fashionable and beautiful, metal utensils often cannot withstand high-temperature steaming. Baking is not as convenient as ceramics, heat-resistant glass and heat-resistant plastics.

2. When using tinfoil to cover food for heating, be sure to tilt one corner of the tinfoil to ensure that the steam in the food can be discharged smoothly. After cooking, carefully tear the tinfoil along the edge to avoid being burned by the heat.

3. If you are cooking a small amount of food at one time, please pay attention to the food cooking process to prevent accidental fire.

4. If you are heating food in containers made of plastic, paper or other flammable materials, you should always pay attention to fire prevention.

6. When using barbecue or light wave cooking, the temperature in the oven is very high. Wear heat-insulating gloves when turning food, and do not touch the inner upper plate.

7. To prevent damage to the glass turntable, please observe the following:

8. After cooking, wait for the turntable to cool down before cleaning.

9. Never place cold food or cold utensils on a hot turntable.

10. The maximum load weight of the turntable cannot exceed 5 kg.

11. If the oven door, door seal, hinges, shell, etc. are damaged due to collision or falling, please do not continue to use it.

In addition to the above-mentioned precautions during use, there are also some skills that need to be learned when cooking food in a microwave oven.
