COOKINGGT]tr)E

TIIE PRINCIPLES OF MICROWAVE COOKING

Microwaves are a form of high frequency radio waves similar to those used by a radio including AM, FM

and CB. They are, hov'ever. much shorter than radio waves; approximately four to six inches iong with a

diameter of about 0.6cm ( 1/,t inch). Electricity is converted into microwave energy by the magnetron tube.

From the magnetron tube, microwave energy is transmitted to the oven cavity where it is reflected,

transmitted and absorbed.

Reflection

Microu'aves are reflected by metal just as a ball is bounced off a wall. A combination of stationary (interior

tt'alls) and ruating metal (turntable or stirrer fan) he$s assure that the microwaves are well distributed within the

oven carih'to produce even cooking.

Transmission

Microwaves pass through some materials such as paper, glass and plastic much like sunlight shining through a

window. Because these substances do not absorb or reflect the microwave energy, they are ideal materialJ for

microwave oven cooking containers.

Absorption

During cooking, microwaves will be absorbed by food. They penetrate to a depth of about 1.8 to 3.7cm Ol4 to lt/2

inches). Microwave energy excites the molecules in the food (especially water, fat and sugar molecules), and causes

them to vibrate at ante of 2,450,000,000 times per second. This vibration causes friction, and heat is produced. If you

vigorously rub your hands together, you will feel heat produced by friction. The internal cooking oflarger foods is dbne

by conduction. The heat which is produced by friction is conducted to the center offood

Foods also continue to cook by conduction during standing time.

Because microwaves dissipate, much fike sunlight as it reaches the Earth's surface, they cannot be stored in food.

MICROWAIM UTENSILS

Glass, Ceramic and China

Ovenproof glass or ceramic baking dishes are the most-used microwave utensils. Many of these items are readily

available in most homes: glass measures, custard cups, mixing bowls, covered casserole, oblong baking dishes, pie

dishes and round or square cake dishes.

Tableware can be used for microwave cooking. If tableware is marked ovenproof, it is frequently safe to use in the

microwave oven.

Jars and botfles can be used to warm food to serving temperature, if the lid is removed first. Cooking should not

be done in these containers since most are not heat resistant and during extended cooking times, heat frbm the food

would cause cracking or breaking.

Do not use dishes with silver, gold, platinum or other metal trim. Arcing may occur and/or the dish may break.

!o not use delicate glassware. Although the glassware may be transparent to microwave energy, the heat from the

food may cause the glassware to crack.

20

Plastics

Plastic dishes, picnic ware, thermal cups, mugs and bowls may be used in the oven for short period of time. But

none of these should be used in the oven for prolonged period because distortion and melting may occur. Check

manufacturer's recommendations conceming rnicrowave safety.

Plastic wrap can be used to cover dishes in most recipes. Use plastic warp as a tight covering, but pierce it before

removing to prevent steam bums,

Plastic cooking bags should be slit before cooking so excess steam can escape, Do not wire twist-ties to close bags.

They can act as an antenna and cause arcing (blue sparks). Wire twist-ties could damage the oven.

Paper

Paper cups, wax paper, napkins, paper towels, plates and paper cartons may be used for cooking. Prolonged

time in the oven can cause paper to burn. wax paper is suitable to use to prevent spatter.

Do not use recycled paper products, such as brown paper bags, since they contain impurities. which may cause

arcing and damage the oven.

Straw, Wicker and Wood

Straw and wicker baskets may be used

utensils, such as bowls or cuffing boards

in the oven for the very short time it takes to heat rolls. Large wooden

cause the wood to become dry and brittle.

the oven for short periods of time.

Metal

Metal utensils should not be used in the oven. Since microwave energy is reflected by metal, foods in metal

containers will not cook evenly. There is also the possibility of "arcing". Arcing may cause damage to the oven

walls.

Special Microwave Accessories

Brorvning rlishes can be used for searing, browning and frying during microwave cooking. Browning dish has a

special coating on the bottem that atffacts microwave energy when the dish is preheated in a microwave oven. Do

not preheat the browning dish longer than the manufacturer's recommendation.

Roasting rack to hold the food away from the liquid which accumulates as meat cooks. It is ideal for bacon and

assists in reheating pastry and other dry items.

Cake dishes-cupcakers, ring molds and cake pans are designed to ensure even results when cooking cakes in a

variety of shapes and sizes.

should not be used for prolonged cooking as the microwave energy may
