HEATING
CATEGORY
Microwaves will pass through certain materials, such as glass and
plastic, to heat the food. (See 'Suitable Ovenware' on page GB-
plastic, to heat the food. (See 'Suitable Ovenware' on page GB-
16
).
Water, sugar and fat in food absorb microwaves which cause them to
vibrate. This creates heat by friction, in the same way your hands get
warm when you rub them together.
The outer areas of the food are heated by the microwave energy,
then the heat moves to the centre by conduction, as it does in
conventional cooking. It is important to turn, rearrange or stir food
to ensure even heating.
Once cooking is complete, the oven automatically stops producing
microwaves.
Standing time is necessary after cooking, as it enables the heat to
disperse equally throughout the food.

Standing time is necessary after cooking, as it enables the heat to

Microwaves are energy waves, similar to those used for TV and radio
signals.
Electrical energy is converted into microwave energy, which is
directed into the oven cavity via a waveguide. To prevent food and
grease entering the wave guide it is protected by the waveguide
cover.
Microwaves cannot pass through metal, because of this the oven
cavity is made of metal and there is a fi ne metal mesh on the door.
During cooking the microwaves bounce off the sides of the oven
cavity at random.
