Those wishing to run the risk of low quality vegetables by microwave blanching should be sure to work in small quantities, using the directions for their specific microwave oven. Microwave blanching will not save time or energy.

Since the life of magnetron is approximately 10,000 working hours, it translates into about 10 to 15 years of domestic use for microwave oven. There are NO residual waves in the food. Once the cooking is done all the waves are used up completely. Microwaves have been in use since the seventies. In the Western and Developed countries Microwave Ovens are now the "Traditional" way of cooking. See similar questions...
