What is the difference between a microwave oven and an electric steamer? Is it the same with usage?

Hehe This problem is simple, both are heating tools, the heating principle of the electric steamer is from the outside in, the temperature increases, the efficiency is low, the heating speed is slow, and the energy consumption is high. The principle of microwave oven heating is to synchronize the heating inside and outside with microwaves** and the molecules of the food**, the heating speed is extremely fast, the efficiency is high, the energy consumption is small, the disadvantage is that the processed food is not delicious enough.

The fundamental difference between an electric steamer and a microwave oven: the way of heating the food is different, the steamer heats the food through pure steam heating, and the heating speed is slower; Microwave ovens are generated with magnetrons and high frequency, which makes the molecules inside the food in a certain range vibrate at high speed and generate heat, but the heating is faster.

The reason why there is an electric steamer and a microwave oven is that the two have different functions, the microwave oven can be used for barbecue and popcorn, but the steamer can't do it, and in terms of use function, each has its own benefits. From the point of view of food health and nutrition, the electric steamer is better, so it can preserve the nutrients of the food completely, while the microwave oven has a certain radiation effect on the food and the possibility of losing nutrients. But in terms of overall functionality, both have their own merits.

Features of electric steamers and microwave ovens:

1. Electric steamer: The steamer is carried out in the form of heat transfer, without destroying the molecular structure of the food itself, steaming food in a short time, inhibiting the loss of food nutrients, preventing oxidation and changing flavor, and maintaining the original taste of food. Determined by the principle of steam heating in the electric steamer itself, the product uses water vapor to cook food.

It is an independent body, there are no light waves, microwaves, and there is no radiation effect on the inside and outside of the food.

2. Microwave oven: The food heated by the microwave oven will lose the original moisture inside, resulting in a dry feeling of the hot things, which cannot ensure the nutrition of the food and the original taste of the food. The magnetron of a microwave oven produces radiation not only to the food itself, but also to the people around it while it is working.

The food heating method is different, the radiation intensity is not the same, the power is different, the energy consumption is different, and the external appearance and volume are different; I think the steam microwave oven is better because it heats up quickly and frequently, which can control the loss of nutrients from the food.

From my personal point of view, the inverter microwave oven is more intelligent, and it will automatically adjust its own working state according to the different foods, and it is also more auspicious and energy-saving, more power-saving, and nuclear banquet book, so I will be more inclined to the first type.

The difference between an electric steamer and a microwave oven.

Electric steamers have many advantages over microwave ovens, but they are also relatively high:

1) Different heating methods: electric steamers are heated by steam heat transfer; Microwave ovens use magnetrons to generate high frequencies that cause the molecules inside the food within a certain range to vibrate at high speed and generate heat.

2) The healthy and nutritious composition of the food is different: because the electric steamer is carried out in the form of heat transfer, the molecular structure of the food itself is not damaged, so that the food can achieve its original taste. Therefore, the degree of nutrient destruction of processed food in electric steamer is lower than that of microwave processed products.

3) Different radiation intensity: determined by the steam heating principle of the electric steamer itself, the product uses water vapor to cook food. It is an independent body, there are no light waves, microwaves, and no radiation effect on the inside and outside of food.

The magnetron of the microwave oven produces radiation not only to the food itself, but also to the people around it when it is working.

4) Different degrees of environmental protection and power saving: the electric steamer generally takes ten minutes to process a dish (the electricity consumption is in degrees), which is more time-saving and power-saving than the microwave oven.

The microwave oven was invented for astronauts...

The electric i steamer is professionally used to steam food, relying on steam circulation, comprehensive heating, good effect!

The microwave oven is locally heated from the inside, which heats up quickly and has poor results!
