Where should I put food inside the Microwave oven?
Microwaves disperse to corners and walls, and then towards the center microwave oven cavity. Therefore, foods placed towards the walls will absorb more microwaves and cook faster then the foods placed in the center. For example, if you want to bake one potato, don’t place it in the center, but off towards a wall or the edge of the turn table. If you are baking several potatoes arrange them in a circle of potatoes leaving the center blank.
