Microwaves - what are they?

Working with microwaves

800 W

-- Fast reheat of beverages, water, clear soups, coffee, tea or

other food with a high water content. If the food contains egg

or cream choose a lower power.

-- To be used for cooking of vegetables, fish, meat etc.

600 W

-- To be used when cooking dishes which cannot be stirred, e.g.:

gratins.

-- To be used when more careful cooking is required e.g. high

protein sauces, cheese and egg dishes and to finish cooking

casseroles.

400 W

-- To be used when simmering stews and cooking fish-based

dishes.

Defrost

-- To be used for manual defrosting.

Keep warm

-- Keep warm. To be used for softening butter, cheese and ice

cream.

To restart the cooking process:

Close the door. The oven starts automatically.

When we heat food with infra waves

(Grill or hot air), in a normal oven, the

heat is applied on the surface of the

food and then conducts (transfers) to the

centre of the food. Food has a rather

poor ability to conduct heat and it

therefore takes a long time to heat the

food.

To interrupt the cooking process:

If you wish to check, stir or turn the food just open the door and

the cooking process automatically stops.

If you don't interrupt the cooking process:

When the cooking process is finished an acoustic

signal sounds and the cooking process is switched off.

Cooking interruption

Note: The cooking process continues from where it was

interrupted.

If you don't want to continue cooking:

Remove the food, turn the TIMER knob to "0" and close the

door.

Note:

It is possible to change both time and power during cooking.

How to choose power level?

Microwaves are like TV waves or light

waves. You cannot see them, but you can

see their effect.

Just like ordinary daylight passes through

glass, clear plastic and air, the microwaves

have the ability to go through materials like

paper, glass, porcelain, plastic and air.

These materials do not contain water or

metal and will consequently not be heated

up by the microwaves. The microwaves are

reflected by metal in the same way as light is reflected by a

mirror.

That's why the food is heated so rapidly.

You save time when cooking with a microwave oven. You

usually also save energy, especially when cooking small amounts

of food.

If you boil fish in a sauce-pan with water, the electrical energy

must first heat the hot-plate. The heat must transfer from the hot-

plate to the sauce-pan and from the sauce-pan to the water which

then will heat the fish.

In a microwave oven the electrical energy is converted to

microwaves and almost all of the microwave energy is then

converted to heat inside the food

Cook time

20 - 25 min.

Microwaves are absorbed by water, oil and fat. The water, oil

and fat molecules are exited by microwaves and rub against each

other, just like when you rub your hands quickly against each

other and heat is produced. The speed of rubbing determines the

temperature. Microwave energy is not hot. It simply causes the

food to make its own heat.

Grill heating

Microwave heating

Food always contains water. When we

heat the food with microwaves the water

molecules in the food are excited and

heat is produced. The microwaves reach

into the food and at the same time enters

the food from all directions.

Cook time

10 min.
