Stop Microwave Explosions: Tips for Reheating Non-Veg Food Safely

  • Non-vegetarian foods like sausages and chicken can explode in microwaves due to steam buildup trapped by skins or casings.
  • Microwaves heat unevenly, creating pressure pockets from rapidly vibrating water molecules, especially in fatty or juicy items.
  • To prevent explosions, cut meat into smaller pieces or make tiny holes in casings to vent steam.
  • Heat in short bursts (30-60 seconds), rotate food, and use microwave-safe glass/ceramic dishes for even heating.
  • Opt for lower power settings for longer durations and cover food loosely with a damp paper towel or lid to contain splatters.

Why It Matters: Prevent messy microwave explosions by using simple techniques for reheating non-vegetarian foods safely.
