I did it when having no kettle,

Main problem is that you don't have a good temperature control, sometimes, you get mid-walm water, sometimes you get boiling water.

Even worse, you have this physical phenomena where water is above 100 degree but doesn't boil, and as soon you move-it it starts boiling. At best it's impressive but it can move into burn quickly.

Has that happened to you? I've not managed to make super heated water in the microwave.

The water continues to heat ~1 minute after microwaving stops, so I guess it could happen if you take it out very close to the boiling point.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

That does not sound right. Do you have a source for that claim?

Yeah, his ass. If you stop adding energy then it stops getting hotter.

Food keeps cooking cause the water in the food is hot and that keeps the food cooking for a bit.

But it doesn't KEEP getting hotter.
