6. Even though they weigh the same the bread contains more air and is therefore less dense Denser foods require longer heating times The thicker the food the longer the heating time If two foods have the same density the thinner food will heat before the thicker one The shape of the food also affects the heating time Low round foods that are depressed in the center heat faster than highly mounded scooped foods This has to do again with the density The denser the mass to be heated the longer the heating time The more food placed in the oven cavity at one time the longer the heating time This is because there is a constant level of energy coming from the magnetron tube during the heating process If there are several food items in the oven they will each absorb some of the energy thus making the total heating time longer The time required for heating is not directly proportional to the increased amount of food The heating time should be increased by about 80 for each additional like food item 18 Heating and cooking time guide Quantity Item Pastries Rolls and Baked Goods slice tt O Biscuit Bun Danish Pastry Dinner Roll Doughnut Muffin small Pie Sweet Roll Breakfast Items 8 oz French Toast amp Bacon 8 oz French Toast amp Sausage 6 oz Pancakes amp Bacon 6 oz Pancakes amp Sausage 5 oz Scrambled Eggs amp Bacon 5 oz Scrambled Eggs amp Sausage
