Potentially hazardous food really shouldn't be cooked in the microwave. However, the internal temperature of the food must reala minimum of 165 degrees fahrenheit.

Is spaghetti sauce with cooked hamburger that was left out overnight safe to eat?
No. Potentially hazardous food (which it is) should not be left out for more than 2 hours - at which time it should be re-heated or refrigerated.
What will Nutella and milk heated up in the microwave do to u?
The Nutella and milk heated up in the microwave will not do anything to you.
What is the difference between microwave and stove cooked food?
Microwave energy is electromagnetic (EM) radiation, and microwave ovens use energy at a frequency of about 2450 MHz (2,450 million cycles per second). This energy is in the microwave band of frequencies, hence the term microwave oven. The frequency is a good choice, because it is quite effective in causing dielectric heating in molecules in the food. This is because there are a lot of molecules within the food that will respond to the microwave energy. These molecules, because they have an electric dipole, will attempt to align themselves with the passing electromagnetic wave. They will be trying to turn back and forth at that 2450 MHz, and this generates heat, which warms/cooks the food.
What is the purpose of the spinning tray in a microwave?
The purpose is to get the food heated evenly more efficiently. Instead of having cold spots in your food when it spins its more likely to get cooked properly.
Does baby formula loses its potency when heated in the microwave?
no
What is a good convection microwave?
Convection ovens contain a fan, which is used to circulate the heated air around the item being cooked inside the microwave oven. This allows the food to be cooked much faster, while at the same time cooking the food at a lower temperature. The temperature used for cooking in a convection oven is about 20% less than in a regular microwave oven.
How long are clams good at room temperature?
Potentially hazardous food should not be left unrefrigerated for more than 2 hours. Make that one if the ambient temperature is very warm. At that point, it should be refrigerated or re-heated.
Can Teflon be heated using a microwave safely?
yes it can yes it can
An experiment tested microwave-heated water to water plants and the plants died. This suggests that the microwave did something to the water to make it harmful. Is microwave heated water harmful?
All a microwave does is send microwaves through objects and speed up the molecules. The reason the plants died is because the water was hot.
What sorts of spots are there that begin with m?
microwave (foot spattered when heated)
Why does a egg change color when heated biology?
The parts of the egg (proteins) have become denatured when heated (cooked).
Why is accurate timing important when using a microwave oven?
Standing time is important because the food is still cooking for a minute after removal from the microwave. A bit of standing time also allows for temperature equalization in the cooked item(s). Experienced microwavers know that when we nuc something, it doesn't necessarily come out evenly heated.
