Microwave	ovens	are	safe.	Microwave	energy is not hot. It causes	food to
make its own heat,		and	it’s this	heat that cooks the food.

Microwaves are like TV waves or light waves. You can’t see them, but you can see what they do.

Microwaves pass through glass, paper and plastic without heating them so food absorbs the energy. Micro- waves bounce off metal pans so food does not absorb the energy.

Oven iavity

A magnetron produces micro- waves The microwaves move into the oven where they are scattered around by a stirrer (like a fan).

Microwaves bounce off metal oven walls and are absorbed by food.

Microwaves 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 pota- toes] stand for a while after cooking, or for stirring some foods during the cooking time

Metdl Bottom

The glass bottom of your microwave oven lets micro- waves through. Then they bounce off a metal floor, back through the glass bot- tom and are absorbed by the food.

The microwaves		disturb
water	molecules	in the food.
As the	molecules	bounce
around	bumping	into each

other, heat is made, like rub- bing your hands together. This is the heat that cooks.
