Microwave ovens are super convenient, but do you know how to use them properly? First things first, always check if your container is microwave-safe! 🔍👀 Glass and ceramics are usually okay, but avoid metal and plastic containers that aren’t labeled microwave-safe.

When heating food, cover it with a lid or a microwave-safe wrap to keep moisture in. This helps prevent splatters and keeps your food tasting fresh! 🥢💦 Set the power level according to what you’re cooking. For example, high power for reheating leftovers and lower settings for defrosting frozen items.

Stirring halfway through can also help ensure even cooking. And remember to let your food rest for a minute after microwaving—it continues to cook while resting! ⏰⏳ Safety first: use oven mitts when handling hot dishes and avoid overheating liquids, which can cause dangerous superheating. With these tips, you’ll be a microwave master in no time! ✨💪
