Glaaa turntable
MA floor
The glass turntable of your microwave oven
lets microwaves pass through. Then they
bounce off a metal floor, back through the
glass turntable, and are absorbed by the food.
In most mkrowave ovens, mkrowaves may
not reach the center of a roast. The heat
around the outside is what cooks the roast all
the way through. This is one of the reasons for
letting some foods (roasts, baked potatoes)
stand for a while after cooking, or for stirring
some foods during the cooking time.
The microwaves disturb water molecules in
the food. As the molecules bounce around
bumping into each other, heat is made, like
rubbing your hands together. This is the heat
that does the cooking.
Although your VIPTM microwave oven cooks
this way also, the DUO SYSTEMTM heating
system allows microwaves to reach the center
of the food more easily. This results in faster
cooking.
MIcrowaves pass through most glass, paper
and plastics without heating them so food
absorbs the energy. Microwaves bounce off
metal pans so food does not absorb the
energy.
