The microwave can generate and diffuse gas in the food material, and the fermentation substance component is dissolved under the action of heat to form gas expansion structure, thereby promoting the fermentation of the food material. The addition of the steam not only can enable the cavity to be maintained in a set temperature range, but also can provide a suitable humidity environment for the fermentation of food materials, and the influence of the surface over-dry crusting on the fermentation is avoided.

In the first setting period, the operation duty ratio of the microwave generating device is greater than or equal to 1/10 and less than or equal to 1/3.

In this embodiment, when the microwave generating device operates according to the first set period, the operation of the microwave generating device is stopped for a period of time after the operation of the microwave generating device for a period of time. Specifically, the operation duty ratio of the microwave generating device directly influences the internal heating effect of the food material, and when the operation duty ratio of the microwave generating device is smaller than 1/10, the operation space of the microwave generating device is smaller, so that the amount of microwaves generated by the microwave generating device is smaller, the internal heating effect of the food material is influenced, the fermentation of the food material is slower, and the fermentation efficiency and effect of the food material are influenced; when the operation duty ratio of the microwave generating device is greater than 1/3, it indicates that the operation space of the microwave generating device is large at this time, so that the microwave generating device generates more microwaves, the temperature rise inside the food material is fast, the food material can be cured, and the waste of the food material is caused. Specifically, the operating duty cycle of the microwave generating device is 1/10-1/3. Set up microwave generating device's operation duty cycle in this interval, realize eating the inside intensification of material, improve the efficiency and the effect of eating the material fermentation, can not make simultaneously eat the material temperature rise problem that leads to eating material fermentation in-process curing too fast.

The duration of the first set period is greater than or equal to 30 seconds and less than or equal to 60 seconds.

In this embodiment, the duration of the first setting period ranges from 30 seconds or more to 60 seconds or less. In particular, the duration of the first set period can affect the fermentation effect of the food material, and when the duration of the first set period is less than 30 seconds, the first set period is short in duration, the microwave generating device runs in the short first set period, the fermentation time of the food materials is directly influenced, the fermentation time of the food materials is long, the fermentation effect of the food materials is influenced, when the duration of the first set period is more than 60 seconds, which indicates that the duration of the first preset period is longer, the microwave generating device operates at the longer first preset period, since the first predetermined period of operation is longer, the microwaves generated by the microwave generating means are operated for a longer time, resulting in cooking of the food material, therefore, the waste of the food materials is caused, and specifically, the duration of the first set period is set within the range of more than or equal to 30 seconds and less than or equal to 60 seconds, so that the fermentation temperature of the food materials is controlled.

In the second set period, the operating duty ratio of the microwave generating device ranges from 1/20 or more to 1/6 or less; and/or the operating duty ratio of the microwave generating device in the third set period is greater than or equal to 1/20 and less than or equal to 1/10.

In this embodiment, when the microwave generating device operates according to the second set period, the operation of the microwave generating device is stopped for a period of time after the operation of the microwave generating device for a period of time. Specifically, the operation duty ratio of the microwave generating device directly influences the internal heating effect of the food material, and when the operation duty ratio of the microwave generating device is smaller than 1/20, the operation space of the microwave generating device is smaller, so that the amount of microwaves generated by the microwave generating device is smaller, the internal heating effect of the food material is influenced, the fermentation of the food material is slower, and the fermentation efficiency and effect of the food material are influenced; when the operation duty ratio of the microwave generating device is greater than 1/6, it indicates that the operation space of the microwave generating device is large at this time, so that the microwave generating device generates more microwaves, the temperature rise inside the food material is fast, the food material can be cured, and the waste of the food material is caused. Specifically, the operating duty cycle of the microwave generating device is 1/20-1/6. Set up microwave generating device's operation duty cycle in this interval, realize eating the inside intensification of material, improve the efficiency and the effect of eating the material fermentation, can not make simultaneously eat the material temperature rise problem that leads to eating material fermentation in-process curing too fast.

The duration of the second set period is greater than or equal to 60 seconds and less than or equal to 120 seconds; and/or the duration of the third set period is more than or equal to 300 seconds and less than or equal to 600 seconds.

In this embodiment, the duration of the second setting period ranges from 60 seconds or more to 120 seconds or less. In particular, the duration of the second set period can affect the fermentation effect of the food material, and when the duration of the second set period is less than 60 seconds, the second set period is short in duration, the microwave generating device operates in the second set period, the temperature control time of the food material is directly influenced, the fermentation effect caused by short temperature control time of the food material is poor, and the fermentation effect of the food material is influenced, when the duration of the second set period is more than 120 seconds, which indicates that the duration of the second preset period is longer, the microwave generating device operates at the longer second preset period, since the second predetermined period of operation is longer, the microwaves generated by the microwave generating means are operated for a longer time, resulting in cooking of the food material, therefore, the waste of the food materials is caused, and specifically, the duration of the second set period is set within the range of more than or equal to 60 seconds and less than or equal to 120 seconds, so that the control of the fermentation temperature of the food materials is realized.

The microwave generating device and the steam generating device are operated alternately.

In this embodiment, the microwave generating device and the steam generating device are operated for a first set time period, which affects the fermentation effect of the food material. When the first set time is less than 2 minutes, the running time of the microwave generating device and the steam generating device is short, the temperature rises slowly, and the food material fermentation effect is influenced; when the first preset time is longer than 4 minutes, the running time of the microwave generating device and the steam generating device is longer, the temperature rises faster, food materials are excessively fermented, and waste of the food materials is caused. Specifically, the first preset time is controlled within the range of more than or equal to 2 minutes and less than or equal to 4 minutes, and the microwave generating device and the steam work alternately to enable the interior of the food material to reach the fermentation temperature quickly, so that the fermentation effect is guaranteed.

The range of the first set power is more than or equal to 100W and less than or equal to 300W; and/or the second set power is in a range of 500W or more and 700W or less.

In this embodiment, the microwave generating device operates at a first set power, the first set power affects a temperature rising effect of the food material, when the first set power is less than 100W, the microwave generating device operates at a lower power at the moment, so that a temperature rising speed of the food material is slow, and a fermentation effect of the food material is affected, when the first set power is greater than 300W, the microwave generating device operates at a higher power at the moment, a temperature rises quickly, which causes a cooking of the food material, and a waste of the food material, a value range of the first set power is reasonably controlled to ensure the fermentation effect of the food material, and specifically, the range of the first set power is controlled to be greater than or equal to 100W, and less than or equal to 300W, so as to ensure the fermentation effect of the food material.

Example seven:

as shown in FIG. 6, for an example of a way of particularly rapidly fermenting dough, the microwave power P1 (corresponding to the first set power in this application) uses a lower power (100 w. ltoreq. P1. ltoreq. 300w), and the steam power P2 (corresponding to the second set power in this application) uses a slightly higher power (500 w. ltoreq. P2. ltoreq. 700 w).

When the temperature of the first discontinuous fermentation mode cavity is increased by T1 (T1 is more than or equal to 2min and less than or equal to 4min), the microwave and the steam work simultaneously to enable the interior of the dough to reach the fermentation temperature quickly. The steam continuously works to enable the cavity to be heated up rapidly, the microwaves avoid continuous work to enable the dough temperature to be overhigh to cause curing by adopting an intermittent working mode, and the working time t2 (t 2 is more than or equal to 3s and less than or equal to 20s) is within t1 (t 1 is more than or equal to 30s and less than or equal to 60s) of each period.

The intermittent operation of the microwave can supplement energy for the dough in fermentation and quickly transmit the energy to the interior of the dough to promote fermentation, and the intermittent operation of the steam can enable the temperature to rise when the temperature of the cavity is reduced in the fermentation process, and meanwhile, good fermentation humidity can be provided to prevent the surface of the dough from drying and crusting. Wherein the steam works for t4 (t 4 is less than or equal to 1min) within t3 (t 3 is less than or equal to 5min and less than or equal to 10min) per period, and the microwave works for t6 (t 2 is less than or equal to 20s) within t5 (t 5 is less than or equal to 1min) per period.

The combined function fermentation can achieve good fermentation effect and shorten fermentation time.

As shown in Table 1, the relationship between the fermentation time and the volume after fermentation in different fermentation modes is shown. Mixing dry and wet materials such as flour, yeast, water and the like uniformly, dividing into 4 parts equally, and fermenting at room temperature, fermenting in an oven, fermenting in a steam box and fermenting by microwave steam combination functions respectively. Wherein, the surface of the dough is covered with a preservative film during natural fermentation at room temperature; setting the fermentation temperature to 35 ℃ during the fermentation in an oven, and putting 200ml of water in the oven into a baking tray and putting the baking tray into the bottom of the oven; when the steam box is used for fermentation, an automatic fermentation program is utilized, and the set temperature is 35 ℃. The time of the four fermentations was compared to the volume of the fermented dough after the end of fermentation. Wherein the natural fermentation method is longest in use at room temperature, and the volume of the dough is smallest; the fermentation time of the oven is the same as that of the steam box, and the volume of the fermented dough of the steam box is slightly larger than that of the fermented dough of the oven; the microwave and steam combined functional fermentation method is shortest in time consumption and the volume of the fermented dough is largest.
