How do you heat food?Left or right?

Many people often try to squeeze all neat food in the middle of a plate or bowl, then put it in the microwave and that's the wrong way. When doing so, the surrounding part, the outside may be hot while in the middle, the inside is still cold.

Microwaves use extremely short electromagnetic waves to ripen food from the inside out. The electromagnetic waves in the oven are unevenly distributed, there is a lot of heat such as around the oven and a hot place as in the middle of the oven, so the food is in the middle of the slower cooking oven around.

The correct way is to arrange the food according to the ring: the food is circled around, creating a space in the middle of the plate. Spread as much as possible.

This is the best way to heat food.

If you heat food of different sizes on a plate, place thick pieces on the outer edge, smaller pieces inside. It will not take much time to arrange it but make sure the plate will be evenly hot.

Because of this, you should not use square or rectangular plates / bowls / containers, but use round containers to heat up food faster because the heat is evenly distributed on the sides.
