According to statistics, the microwave oven is the most common kitchen appliance. There are a number of myths and interesting facts around it that are not known.
One of these myths is that if you put an iron plate in a microwave oven, you will get a high-power explosion. In practice, the magnetron will be damaged by sparks.
Metal utensils and dishes that are in a working microwave oven can take it out of order. It is also a myth that the microwave spoils food.
Some people believe that it leads to loss of nutrients, but this happens with any type of heat treatment. The microwave oven only heats the food, which evaporates some of the substances.
One of the myths associated with the microwave oven is that it can cause allergies to electromagnetic waves. This, of course, is not the case.
It is also a myth that microwave ovens are radioactive. They, like the sun and fire, simply heat the food. The stoves emit microwaves, which cause the water molecules to rub and heat up.
It is also a myth that a microwave oven heats food from the inside out. In fact, microwaves move from the outside in, staying in the upper layers of food.
It is also not true that microwaves do not affect dry materials that are on the surface of products, so their heating is done deeper.
The fact is that eggs cannot be heated in the microwave. This is due to the fact that hermetically sealed liquids, such as eggs, are not heated in the microwave.
The strong evaporation of water creates high pressure in them and they can explode. It is not recommended to heat sausages in their plastic wrap.
The water in the microwave can heat up. The smoother and more uniform the inner surface of the vessel in which you heat the water, the higher the risk that it will spill out when overheated.
