      It’s important knowledge for reheating leftovers. Reheating a plate of food for 30 seconds on high results in the outside being hot but the middle cold. Reheating for three minutes at 50% results in a perfectly heated meal.

      It also helps prevent temperature-sensitive ingredients from overheating. Reheated pizza tends to be extremely greasy if you throw it in on high because the cheese breaks long before the crust gets warmed through, but the low cost of an extra minute or two will give you pizza that’s nearly as good as when it was fresh.

      Life hack: Use an air fryer whenever you can instead of the microwave.

      Heck, I use mine to toast bread now.
