The microwave
A microwave is mainly used for quickly heating, preparing and defrosting
food like vegetables, meat, fish and potatoes. In addition, it is suitable for
preparing ready-to-eat meals or a glass or bottle of (baby)milk. Using the
microwave function will accelerate the defrosting, preparing and heating
process.
how does a microwave work?
• The microwave works through electromagnetic microwaves, which
are sent by a high voltage system. These microwaves have a frequency
of 2450MHz and are not ionizing. This means they do not damage
the molecules. The microwaves turn the water within the food into
heat. Besides water, also fat molecules within the food are effective to
transform radiation energy into heat.
• The microwaves are going directly through tableware, which allows the
food to heat up quickly. Vitamins and natural flavours will be preserved.
• Because the microwaves remain within the device, the heating is in
some parts more intense than in others. For this reason, the microwave
is generally equipped with a glass turntable. Due to the rotating
motion, the turntable enables the energy to be divided more equally
