Abstract
With the trends of smart kitchens, more intelligent and fast cooking methods are gradually replacing traditional cooking methods. Microwave combined with hot air, commonly used in the industry for food drying, is a new cooking technology with great potential for applications in home cooking such as baking, frying, reheating, and thawing. This review introduces the basic principles of microwave and hot air technology and the advantages in home cooking. The combination of microwave and hot air can compensate for the shortcomings of traditional microwave ovens in baking and frying. By using microwaves to enhance energy conversion efficiency and significantly reduce cooking time, this combination broadens the application range of household microwave ovens and holds great potential in the future of digital cooking.
