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.
Mlcrowaves 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.
Microwaves do heat the CRISPWARE’M Crisper Pan, however. The rubberized pad on the bottom of the Crisper Pan is made of a special material which absorbs microwaves. This heats the pan very rapidly, browning and crisping the bottom of the food.
In most mkrowave ovens, mkrowaves may not reach the center of a roast. The heat spreads to the center from the outer, cooked areas just as in conventional cooking. This is one of the reasons for letting some foods (for example, roasts or 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 VIP CRISPWAVETM micro- wave 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.
