MICROWAVE COOKING
![Page 19: Starter What does a pastry blender do?? Kitchen Equipment Plus a little…](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062803/56649f495503460f94c6a8d8/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
How Does a Microwave Work?
• 1- Magnetron tube turns electricity into microwaves
• 2- The microwaves are absorbed into the food molecules causing them to vibrate.
• 3- Friction produces heat which cooks the food.
![Page 20: Starter What does a pastry blender do?? Kitchen Equipment Plus a little…](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062803/56649f495503460f94c6a8d8/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Magnetron!
![Page 21: Starter What does a pastry blender do?? Kitchen Equipment Plus a little…](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062803/56649f495503460f94c6a8d8/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Electromagnetic Waves
• Microwaves come out of an opening in the metal case
• They reflect off the sides, bottom, and top and penetrate the food
• It can lead to uneven cooking
![Page 22: Starter What does a pastry blender do?? Kitchen Equipment Plus a little…](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062803/56649f495503460f94c6a8d8/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Which foods cook faster in a microwave oven?
• Microwaves are attracted to fats. Cheesy foods will cook or heat very quickly.
• Microwaves are also attracted to sugar molecules. (honey, syrups, dessert foods will heat or cook very quickly.)
• Microwaves are attracted to water and watery textures such as soups.
![Page 23: Starter What does a pastry blender do?? Kitchen Equipment Plus a little…](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062803/56649f495503460f94c6a8d8/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
What is the safest type of container to use in the microwave?
• Paper• Plastic• Glass• Ceramic• METAL is a NO-NO!
• If the container is shallow and round, rather than square, food will cook more evenly.
![Page 24: Starter What does a pastry blender do?? Kitchen Equipment Plus a little…](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062803/56649f495503460f94c6a8d8/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
What is standing time?• The amount of time food is
allowed to sit after microwaving.
• This is important because it allows the food to finish the cooking process.
• The quantity, or volume, of food cooked will increase standing time.
• Browning does not happen in microwave cooking due to the lack of dry heat from the cooking coil.
![Page 25: Starter What does a pastry blender do?? Kitchen Equipment Plus a little…](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062803/56649f495503460f94c6a8d8/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Why do some microwaves rotate
the food as it cooks?• Foods will cook more
evenly if rotated during cooking.
• Another reason it is important to stir food during cooking is because food cooks from the outside in.
![Page 26: Starter What does a pastry blender do?? Kitchen Equipment Plus a little…](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062803/56649f495503460f94c6a8d8/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Micro-waved foods will not scorch or stick so constant
stirring is not necessary, but stirring is so important to
disperse heat to the inside of the food!
![Page 27: Starter What does a pastry blender do?? Kitchen Equipment Plus a little…](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062803/56649f495503460f94c6a8d8/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Why Should Foods Be Covered While Microwaving?
• Moisture will be held in the food.
• Food will cook more evenly.
• Prevents splattering.
![Page 28: Starter What does a pastry blender do?? Kitchen Equipment Plus a little…](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062803/56649f495503460f94c6a8d8/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
What would be an appropriate cover when cooking with a
microwave?
• Plastic wrap
• Paper towels
• Wax paper
• Microwavable lids

Remember the Following to Prevent Burns…..
• Hot food = hot containers.
• Lift cover away from you (steam can burn-pop corn bags)
• Piercing foods prevents exploding (potatoes)

Microwave Experiment
• What happens to food as it is cooked in the microwave? Will the food item cook differently if it is a high-fat item vs a high-sugar item?
