Ferment foods rapidly in your microwave
Did you know that fermentation, which typically takes 10-12 hours, can be completed within just 2 hours in a microwave oven? This accelerated fermentation is due to the microwave oven's ability to consistently maintain the ideal temperature of up to 40°C required for the process. Forgot to leave your idli batter overnight for fermentation? No worries, you can still achieve the desired results at any time during the day using your microwave oven. The same goes for fermenting dosa batter, appam batter, jalebi batter, dhokla batter, and more. Simply transfer the freshly made batter into a large microwave-safe vessel, place it in the microwave oven, select the fermentation mode, enter the weight, and press start.
Save time with Rapid Defrost mode
Defrosting frozen foods can be time-consuming. However, if you're looking to quickly prepare your meal, the defrost option in your microwave can be a time saver. Its rapid defrost mode efficiently melts ice crystals without cooking the food, bringing it to a normal temperature in no time. By using a Godrej inverter microwave oven, you can enjoy the added benefit of 40% faster defrosting compared to traditional methods.
