Foods that should not be heated in the microwave
- Eggs
Warming eggs in the microwave is always an unpleasant surprise for those who have never done it, but people only make this mistake once. Boiled eggs tend to explode in the microwave, so cut them in half and heat them for a very short time so they don't explode.
- Green leaves
This is another type of food that should not be heated anyway, especially in the microwave, leaves like arugula, lettuce and others, when placed to heat in the microwave, lose several nutrients and also tend to wither, getting an appearance that is nothing receptive.
- Peeled vegetables, legumes and fruits
In the case of these vegetables, legumes and fruits that have skins, the danger of heating them in the microwave occurs because the same thing happens with eggs. Food explodes because it heats up from the inside out and because there is no space for the steam that was generated to come out, the pressure increases and food tends to explode.
Materials that should not be put in the microwave
In addition to some foods, there are also certain materials that should not be heated in microwaves, such as for example metallic pots and objects, aluminum foil, fabrics and common papers, as well as objects of wood.
