Which food isn’t safe to cook in a microwave?
The microwave is a fantastic invention that has been with us for a long time, although it is still a great mystery for many of us. It heats the food in a fraction of the time, but sometimes it also makes things explode.
It is very likely that you have learned that many things should not be put into the microwave after some catastrophic experience. I will never forget when I put a plate with a stainless steel spoon inside the microwave to heat the soup and the thing almost ended up exploding.
There are many things that you should avoid heating in a microwave. Here, we will only mention 4 things that you should never, under any circumstances, heat in the microwave. You will be surprised at the list.
1. Meat
Some people usually introduce meats to the microwave oven to thaw them within minutes before preparing them.
While this may help prevent the contamination of some bacteria, it is a method that decreases the composition of vitamin B12 and amino acids.
2. White rice
White rice is a food that should not be heated in a microwave for any reason since the high temperatures to which it is subjected deprive it of a large part of its nutrients. Because, in the microwave, a uniform and high temperature are established from the first moment of cooking, which directly affects its content of vitamins, minerals, and fibers.
3. Broccoli
The high temperatures of the microwave oven can destroy up to 97% of the antioxidants contained in broccoli. The changes to which it is subjected to this type of cooking can be perceived both in its texture and taste.
4. Butter
Although many people tend to melt butter in the microwave oven, its heat can reduce the protein value that characterizes it.
