Food and cookware taken out of a microwave oven are rarely much hotter than 100 Â°C (212 Â°F). Cookware used in a microwave oven is often much cooler than the food because the cookware is transparent to microwaves; the microwaves heat the food directly and the cookware is indirectly heated by the food.
It's that simple. Microwave ovens use high power electromagnetic radiation (radio) at a frequency close to 2.5 GHz to do the job of cooking. Much of the design of the appliance goes into making sure that very little of that radiation is given off, and that it stays inside the cooking chamber where it belongs...Microwaves heat food by sending out waves that cause the water molecules in a food item to vibrate rapidly. this creates an energy that presents itself as heat to cook the food. Ideally, the waves are contained within the microwave because the door is closed as it is turned on, releasing waves and cooking the food.
