10.COOKING HINTS FOR THE MICROWAVE

10.1General information about microwaves

Microwaves penetrate into the food agitating the water molecules inside it; this very high frequency movement generates heat at the centre of the food which heats up and cooks leaving the surrounding environment cold. This cooking system gives a saving in time and electricity, since the heat is produced inside the food achieving the desired result more rapidly.

Not all types of kitchenware are suitable for use in a microwave oven. Please refer to the heading "7.3.2 Kitchenware" to verify whether you have the right material.
