Description

Cooking container for microwave oven {cooking container for microwave}

The present invention relates to a cooking container for a microwave oven, and more particularly, to a cooking container for a microwave oven capable of selectively cooking a steamed dish or a grilled dish.

In general, a microwave oven is a cooking appliance that generates electromagnetic waves or high-temperature hot air and heats, boils, bakes, frys, or steams food by the generated electromagnetic waves or hot air.

The microwave oven cooks by directly placing food on a tray provided therein, or cooking by placing a separate cooking container containing food on the tray.

In particular, when steaming food with heated steam, a separate container made of a ceramic material having excellent thermal insulation properties, such as an earthenware pot, is used so that the steamed food can be easily cooked.

However, conventionally used containers made of ceramics have only a steaming function, such as a general earthenware pot, and when other roasting is required, a separate container for roasting has to be used, which is inconvenient.

That is, conventionally developed cooking vessels for microwave ovens had no choice but to cook by putting only one kind of food in one vessel.
