Incident:
Couple of days back, i was so hungry suddenly. So i tried making instant noodles.And that too in Microwave its so easy. Actually life is made easy with it. That's what i thought when i was about to start making it.
So i poured little water, put the noodles and masala. Turned on the machine with microwave mode for 10 minutes in 750 watts. Assuming 10 minutes was enough for it to boil.
I was away from kitchen as i was busy watching a movie. I went inside the kitchen around 15 minutes afterward. I could feel some smell .When i opened the door, i was shocked with the smoke inside.
Noodles turned dark brown, ours was cream colored microwave, so it was all covered with yellow color which masala had. One thing that stroked my mind instantly was, how do i clean it before my mother notices it. Somehow cleaned it. But the smell lasted till next morning.
Defect (or) Enhancement:
After coming out of kitchen, i felt like why the hell this happened?????????? Then i felt like why Samsung dint have a sensor that trigger the microwave power to shut down when something burns badly inside.
Because it spoils the food and the utensils as well.
But i am not sure whether i expect so much or there are microwave really does what i expect.
If there is such a microwave, let me know the brand please...............
This is one of the happening things in microwave cooking, you need to learn the temperature and the mode before you start your cooking on microwave. By the way, there are no such sensors exists in any of the microwaves as far as I know. If you are trying a dish for the first time, cook with the optimum temperature,open and check very frequently till its finished. :D
ReplyDeleteBut i felt like there should be some operation to stop the microwave if the smoke is high inside. It would be even more user friendly
ReplyDeleteDont you think 10 mins is too much for the noodles????
ReplyDeleteAnyways, though we depend on the automated system for many things, we still need to be aware of its limitations before we start using them!!!!
So I guess this is the lesson we should learn to how much we can depend on automated systems!!!
True, but my point is not all are expert in using them. So for customers like me, it would be helpful if they auto stop the system when smoke is produced when doors are closed
