Abstract

PURPOSE:To give scorching to the cooked foodstuff by placing the foodstuff in proximity of or in contact with the container, lid and wave absorbing ceramic heater placed in the container. CONSTITUTION:The heater 3 absorbs most of the wave to generate heat, but, if necessary, the lid 1 can also be made a wave absorber. That is, the lid 1 serves as an overhead heat source by radiating far infrared rays from above the foodstuff. The material for the heater 3 is glass, ceramics or new ceramics added with SiO2, Al2O3 and carbon. The surface is glazed to allow its usage for cooking. Various patterns are offered to give a suitable scorching to the cooked foodstuff which comes in contact with the heater. The wave absorbing heater can be placed either on top of or under the foodstuff to give the scorch ing to it.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Field) The present invention relates to a cooking device used when heating cooking materials using a microwave oven.

(Conventional technology) To heat cooking ingredients using a microwave oven at home,
General (Put the material in heat-resistant glass or ceramics and heat it.
I understand.

These glass and porcelain vessels are simply vessels made of multilayer materials, and are made to heat only the cooking ingredients without affecting the radio waves of a microwave oven (the problem that the invention aims to solve). When heating cooking ingredients in a microwave, radio waves mainly act on the moisture in the ingredients, and the moisture in the ingredients is heated, but if the moisture evaporates, the ingredients will not be heated. Because of this limitation, the range of use of microwave ovens is limited.

In order to solve this drawback of microwave ovens, some microwave ovens are combined with conventional microwave ovens, but these microwave ovens have complicated structures and are expensive.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In view of the above problems, the present invention aims to steam and heat cooking materials without making any modifications to the conventional microwave oven, and to use a heating medium of 100°C or higher. , which provides a microwave oven for browning the material.

The microwave oven cooker of the present invention is composed of a container, a lid, and a ceramic radio wave absorbing heating element placed in the container, and the heating element is brought close to or in contact with the cooking material to scorch the cooking material. It is characterized by this.

(Function) In FIG. 1, cooking material A is placed on the ceramic radio wave absorbing heating element 3 in the container 2, 11 is placed on the container 2, and the I
It is heated by radio waves inside the E-child cash register. The cooking material A is heated by radio waves, and the heating element 3 absorbs the radio waves,
When the temperature is 0°C or higher, the temperature reaches a red-hot state, and the parts that are in close contact with the cooking material A are browned. Further, since the cooking material A is in a container with a lid, moisture does not evaporate, and the desired cooked product can be obtained. In some cases, cooking can be done without covering the lid.

(Example) FIG. 1 shows an example of this cooking device, which is composed of a cooking device 111, a container 2, and a radio wave absorbing heating body 3 made of ceramic.

The heating element 3 is mainly used for this addition 1! Trees absorb most of the radio waves and heat them up, but in some cases l! 1 is also a radio wave absorber, which radiates far-infrared heat from the top of the cooking ingredients! 1 acts as a heavenly fire.

The raw material of the heating element 3 is glass, ceramics, or new ceramics, and contains SIO, Ait's, or carbon.The surface of the heating element 3 is coated with a glaze so that it can be used as a cooking device. It is. By making various shapes, it is possible to suitably brown the cooking material that comes into contact with this heating element.

20 to 5 show specific examples of this heating body. That is, the radio wave absorbing heating body 3a in FIG.
It is convenient to use it by laying it on the bottom of a circular object.

The radio wave absorber 3b in FIG. 3 is formed into a curved plate shape.

The radio wave absorbing heating element 3C shown in FIG. 4 has a structure in which a large number of vertical grooves are provided, and moisture and oil generated from the cooking material during heating are dropped into the grooves to create browned vertical lines.

The radio wave absorbing heating body 3d in FIG. 5 is shaped like a cross plate, and by appropriately combining these plates, it is possible to create browned seams in a desired shape.

These radio wave absorbing heating elements can be placed either above or below the cooking material to create browned marks.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the structure of the container 2a is changed.

By providing a stage M4 inside the container 2a and placing the radio wave absorbing heating element 3 on this stage a14, the radio wave absorbing heating element 3 is placed in close proximity to the cooking material A with a gap between it and the cooking material A placed in the container 2a. The material is heated by far infrared rays to create even brown marks on its surface.

(Effects of the Invention) In the cooking device according to the present invention, the cooking material can be brought close to or in contact with the radio wave absorbing heating element, and the cooking material can be browned in a general microwave oven as in the case of a microwave oven. In particular, browning cooking ingredients in a sealed container is a cooking method that cannot be achieved with conventional microwave ovens, and this allows dishes with unique flavors to be provided. It also has the advantage of good thermal efficiency since the container can be heated while being sealed.
