Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a food container for microwave ovens that can be heated to roast or stir-fry the food when heating the food in a microwave oven. It is.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, a microwave oven has been used as a cooking device to heat frozen cooked foods or cold cooked foods for consumption. As microwave ovens have become more widespread, a variety of new processed foods have been created that are suitable for use with microwave ovens. For example, microwave popcorn, which has recently become popular,
The popcorn is popped inside the package, and when this microwaveable popcorn is irradiated with microwaves, the pressure of the steam generated ruptures the inner container, making it easier to remove the contents of the outer carton. It is designed to open like this.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) Containers for frozen cooked foods or other cooked foods that are heated in a microwave oven and made edible are generally used only to contain and hold the cooked food; When heated, the moisture in the cooked food heats it to a state where it is steamed, and heat treatments such as roasting or stir-frying are not possible.
Even in popcorn for microwave ovens that can be seen these days, a mechanism is devised to open the popcorn to make it easier to take out the food inside, but no consideration has been given to heating the popcorn to roast or stir-fry it.

(Means for solving the problem) This invention installs a heat-resistant porous plate on which cooking oil is adsorbed on the inner bottom of the container, and then heats the food in a microwave oven by placing the food on it. Just do
It is a device that allows food to be heat-treated to a state where it is roasted or stir-fried. If there is a heat-resistant porous plate that adsorbs edible oil on the inner bottom of the container,
When heated in a microwave oven, the cooking oil heats up and the porous plate becomes hotter than the food above it.
The temperature reaches a high temperature of over 100℃, and this high temperature heats the food. In addition, since the cooking oil is adsorbed and retained on the porous plate, it is extremely unlikely to transfer to the food, and as with cooking with cooking oil applied to a frying pan, the food can be heated to high temperatures with almost no oil on the food. heated to. At this time, if the porous plate is impregnated with a large amount of edible oil, the amount of edible oil that adheres to or transfers to the food increases, and the food is heated to a high temperature in a state similar to frying. In conventional microwave food containers, the food content is
The temperature will not exceed 100℃.

(Example) The microwave food container of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a container, which can be appropriately formed into a circular shape, a polygonal shape, or the like. In addition, the material of the container 1 may be any material that is generally used in microwave ovens, but preferably silicon-treated paper, thick paper laminated with various resins, or heat-resistant resin thin plate. It is.

A heat-resistant porous plate 2 adsorbing edible oil is installed at the inner bottom of the container 1. Heat-resistant porous plate 2
The material is not particularly limited, and may be any material as long as it is harmless and can adsorb and retain edible oil. For example, paper, drawing paper, cardboard, nonwoven fabric, diatomaceous earth, etc. are used in the form of a plate. Edible oil is generally used for human consumption, and is not limited to liquid oil; butter and other solid fats can also be used. By controlling the adsorption amount of cooking oil on the heat-resistant porous plate 2, the food can be roasted or stir-fried. It is preferable to select the food 3 suitable for roasting or frying as appropriate. Reference numeral 4 denotes a coating film for the opening of the container 1, which is hygienic as it prevents the entry of insects and the like, and it is preferable to use a transparent film such as cellophane paper so that the contents can be seen through. Coating film 4
is appropriately selected depending on the shape of the container 1, and is not necessarily required in some cases.

When the microwave food container of the present invention is used for consumption, when it is heated in a microwave oven, the cooking oil adsorbed on the porous plate becomes heated to a high temperature of 100℃ or more, and the food becomes porous without being transferred to the food. Since the porous plate is held in a porous plate, the porous plate is also kept at a high temperature, and the food placed thereon is heat-treated in a roasting or frying state.

(Effects of the invention) According to the invention, due to the presence of the heat-resistant porous plate that adsorbs edible oil, when heated in a microwave oven, the porous plate reaches a higher temperature than the food. The microwave oven can be used effectively as a cooking device because high heat is applied to the food that comes into contact with it, and the food can be heated in a roasting or frying state.
