Microwave boilers are a must-have home appliance for cooking and heating food in many homes, especially cold food and leftovers in the refrigerator. If you want to eat, take it out from the refrigerator and it can be done in a few minutes, which is fast and convenient. However, not every food can be put into microwave ovens. Some foods may spark, explode and cause safety problems in microwave ovens; or heat up unevenly, causing health concerns. The following sort out the following foods, which are not suitable for using microwave heating.
10 types of food should not be placed in microwave ovens1. It is not suitable for microwave ovens for whole raw chicken eggsshelled food, such as whole raw chicken eggs, chestnuts, etc.
Microwave boilers can only heat and cooked eggs. If the whole raw egg is heated, it will explode. If it is not blown up in the microwave, it may explode when you are eaten in your mouth, which may cause hearing problems.
2. Foods with a scented, hot dog, and ripeare not suitable for microwaves, such as scented, hot dog, and ripe , because the external film blocks the internal vapor release and is prone to burst.
To microwave heat, poke the hole first or cut it open before microwave.
3. GrapesSkinned fruits and vegetables, such as grapes, whole apples, tomatoes, etc.
grapes were originally eaten directly without heating. But some people will cool grapes. If you want to use the cold grapes that are just taken out of the cold pot, you need to use them to make cakes or make other dishes. However, remember that the grapes must not be heated by microwaves, especially when the grapes are cut into two and a half but the peels are still connected, sparks and ion will be generated, so be careful of the danger of explosion. This is also related to the inability of microwave ovens to heat up food evenly.
4. HussanIntact fruits and vegetables, such as Hussan , should be cut into small pieces or slices if you want to use microwave. If it is a whole saccharin, it will easily explode due to the different internal moisture content and it will easily become hot locally. In addition, because saccharin contains minerals in the soil, these minerals may also produce sparks.
5. High-oil, salty sugar foodsHigh-oil, high-sugar, and high-salty foods, such as cakes with a lot of cream, fried chickens with a lot of fat, hot dogs, etc., if heated with microwave, the oil will drip and fly, which will easily burn and catch fire.
6. Processed meatProcessed meat will form pyrosterol oxidants (COPs) under microwave radiation. Studies have shown that COP is more destructive than a single typical pyrosterol and is more likely to cause atherosclerosis and coronary disease. Therefore, using microwave ovens to heat process meat may harm your heart health.
7. Raw meatUse microwave to heat raw meat. The biggest problem is that the heating is uneven, which makes the whole piece of meat unable to be completely heated. Some parts may be cooked and some parts are not cooked. It is recommended to use an oven to ensure that the meat is fully cooked.
8. Liquids such as white water, sauce, etc.Use microwave boilers to add hot water to white water. It may cause excessive heat. When opening the microwave boiler door to move the cup, or when taking out the cup to move, it will boil instantly, which will cause burning and damage caused by hot water spraying, which is very dangerous.
9. Milk, breast milkOther liquids are the same as above, such as milk, breast milk, sauce, etc., which may occur. If you are drinking milk for baby children, be more careful to avoid injuring the child. In addition, using microwave to heat breast milk may also damage its nutrients.
