What can microwave ovens do?
Microwave ovens have six common uses.

1, food thawing

Because the microwave oven itself has a good heating function, sometimes we need to thaw the caked meat that has just been taken out of the refrigerator. It's good to use the microwave oven at this time. Thawing from the inside out is very fast, which can well limit microbial reproduction.

2. Food cooking

We don't just cook with gas stoves. Sometimes it is very convenient and quick to use the microwave oven. Heated food transfers heat and dissipates some heat through the medium inside, so that it can be added to food to correct the taste.

3, food drying, dehydration

Another function of microwave oven is to dehydrate our food. For some foods that need dehydration, we can dry them in a microwave oven and keep them for a long time.

4. Secondary heating of food

The most common function of microwave oven is to heat leftovers. We don't need to add any substance in the process of microwave heating, but only need a few minutes or dozens of seconds to keep the original flavor of food.

5, sterilization and disinfection

Under a certain intensity, the microwave oven can kill all the E.coli and Sarcocystis in one minute and six minutes. Although it can't reach the level of medical elimination, its bactericidal effect is still very good.

6, food preservation

For some leftovers, when we heat them in the pot, they will lose their original flavor, and the microwave oven can heat them in just a few minutes, which can not only keep the food fresh, but also ensure the food to get hot.
