What are microwaves?
Microwaves are electromagnetic waves like
those for radio and television; as with radio
and TV waves, they cannot be seen or felt.
Microwaves
are reflected by all metals,
can penetrate glass, porcelain, plastic and
paper,
are absorbed by foodstuffs.
What effect do microwaves have
on foodstuffs?
The microwaves penetrate foodstuffs to a
depth of approximately 3 cm.
The water, fat and sugar molecules are
heated up (dishes with a high water con-
tent are heated up most quickly).
This heat then slowly penetrates the entire
dish and leads to the dish being defrosted,
heated and cooked.
Due to the fact that the individual elements
of the dish are heated unevenly, it is impor-
tant to stir or turn the dish over to ensure
that it is cooked through evenly.
The cooking chamber and the air inside
it are not heated – the food container be-
comes warm primarily due to the heat of
the food.
– Heating the liquid can cause so-called
‘delayed boiling’. The liquid then reaches
boiling temperature without any outward
visible sign of boiling. Even a small vibra-
tion may cause the liquid to suddenly spray
out, for example when removing it from the
microwave oven.
Every dish requires a certain amount of en-
ergy for cooking or defrosting – a good rule
of thumb is “high-power, low time” or “low
power, high time”.
How does a microwave oven
work?
A microwave generator, the so-called mag-
netron, generates the microwaves and dis-
perses them into the cooking chamber.
The cooking chamber walls and inner
screen reflect microwaves, thus presenting
them from being emitted out of the cooking
chamber.
The microwave power can be set to sev-
eral levels.
