I have been using microwave ovens for almost 20 years. It is necessary for ordinary families to have a microwave oven. For more than ten years, I have used a rice cooker specially designed for microwave heating to make rice, and I have stopped using electric rice cookers for a long time.
Making rice in a microwave oven is faster and shorter than a rice cooker, has higher thermal efficiency and saves electricity. In addition, unlike a rice cooker, the rice soup will not flow everywhere, and the rice will not stick to the pan. It is easy to clean the rice cooker by wasting food. It is very convenient and quick to make custard in the microwave. It is the most convenient to heat leftovers in the microwave. It only takes a minute or two.
Some friends say that it is not possible to heat steamed buns in a microwave oven. The middle is hard. This is caused by not understanding the heating principle of the microwave oven. My experience is that cold steamed buns should be wrapped in a transparent food bag and placed in the microwave oven at high heat. Heat for 30 seconds, never more than a minute! Everyone will understand after trying it. Damp biscuits, fried peanuts and melon seeds can also be heated in the microwave to remove moisture. The time should be short but not long, because the microwave oven is different from the fire we use. It starts to heat from the middle and is easy to burn. In short, microwave ovens have many uses. Once you get used to using them, you really can’t live without them. It’s also safe to heat food.
