Microwave: ahhhh baby all done Food: I’m not even warm yet….
Food still has ice on it, plate gives you 2nd degree burns.
If your microwave has the option, set it to power level 6 (or 60%) and up the time by 1.5-2x. No more blisteringly hot plates with ice puck food on top!
Have you got a minute to talk about our lord and saviour Air Fryer?
Heretic! Air Fryers are just mini convection ovens invented by the devil!
You can't even see inside them!
That’s Fryer Tuck.
@MicroWave@lemmy.world pls confirm
Efficiency baby
Two minutes if you don't know what you're doing - you'll be hot on the outside but still cold within.
Gotta take your time, reduce your power, give that warmth time to propagate within.
Unless it's bacon, where I think 2 minutes might be enough to turn it into pure plasma with how much it's popping and exploding by 10 seconds.
Yeah but the microwave makes it all soggy and limp.
that's just a sign it's been fully utilized
Air fryer is the best of both worlds.
I love being able to both skip the preheat time and reduce the cooking time by 25% on top of it in my convection toaster oven/air fryer.
Just sucks that they gave it a shit UI that makes me miss the analog controls of my previous toaster oven.
Oven: 5 more minutes, just like that!
Microwave: mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ding
Toaster: I'll let you know when I'm done
Smoke Detector: 🤔

My new oven is so energy efficient it takes 20 mins to warm up before cooking a pizza for ten minutes.
Also, oven: frozen pizza right on the grate.
Microwave: you put that shit on a plate and a paper napkin on top of it, don't want all the other food inside the microwave touching your food
