The Power Settings Protocol
1
The 70% Power Rule
Always reheat at 70% power. Full power creates hot spots that destroy protein structure and create rubbery textures. Lower power = even heating.
2
Damp Paper Towel Cover
Place a damp paper towel over containers to create steam. This prevents moisture loss and keeps grains, rice, and proteins from drying out.
3
Container Compatibility
Glass containers only for microwave prep. BPA-free plastic degrades over 100+ cycles. Invest in a 12-piece glass set with snap-lock lids.
