Experienced housewives have discovered an interesting way to save money from the family budget. You won't notice the savings right away, but only when the microwave oven suddenly breaks down.
This method consists of a glass of water. Here's how this amazing discovery works.
A glass of water placed in the microwave at the right time will not help save kilowatts of electricity and heat up more food in less time.
However, you should not forget about it either when reheating food or when defrosting it.
What's the secret?
The thing is that each device is designed to heat up a minimum weight. This means that if you put a product weighing less than 100 grams in the microwave, you can easily ruin the microwave.
By the way, if you turn to the original sources for a moment, i.e. the instructions, then all the necessary recommendations can be found on its pages.
In particular, the emitted and unused waves can damage the magnetron. This is an expensive part of household appliances, without which further operation of the microwave oven is impossible.
Therefore, if you want to warm up a small sandwich or cutlet, put a cup of water or another container to make up for the lack of weight of the food.
