microwaves are stupid.
how can something be half frozen and half molten lava at the same time?

stupid idea... what was wrong with taking 10 minutes longer and heating things evenly?!

I actually threw out my microwave in favor of an air fryer. I cook a lot of stuff in my air fryer to corn dogs, potatoes, bacon, and even fried chicken.

did air fryers ever move past the Mr. Dink stage?

We got one for a gift five years and some change ago, and it's just, freaking terrible. The only thing we can stand to use it for these days is fish, because fish is one of the few things that are ok with a tiny, half-assed crunch. Because that's what the thing does: it produces a tiny, half-assed crunch. Literally the broiler in the conventional oven does better, and it's not even close.

I tried making some French fries in one once, when it was new and I didn't know better. I looked them up in the recipe book that came with, which said to bake at (I foget, 425, 450, something like that) for 15 minutes, reapply oil, repeat two or three times. So I chopped up some potatoes, oiled 'em, put em in, 15 minutes, reapplied oil, repeated however many times I was supposed to, and they were literally crunchy on the inside--you know, RAW. SO I did another couple of cycles. IT'S ROAR! YOU CAN'T SERVE THIS TO PEOPLE! YOU'LL KILL SOMEBODY!!! Few more cycles. Fine. I'll eat these hot, raw potatoes I guess. Since I don't have the patience to cook and oil a bajillion times all day.

MOR OLIV AWL!!

but then you'd just be shallow frying things in an over-priced pan wouldn't you?

it kinda annoys me when people cook potatoes in an oven on a tray and call them "fries" when there were not in fact fried... they're funny little wedges.

you can crisp things in a microwave kinda... but it involves having metal in there and is probably more complicated than it sounds.
Yes, a browning sleeve will absorb the microwave energy, get hot, and indirectly cook the contents of the sleeve.

You can also cook food with high fat content. You can actually make crispy bacon in a microwave.

And the reason the center stays cold is because the microwave chamber is filled with interference patterns. It's not a uniform field of microwaves bouncing around in there.

Long story short, the ideal shape for food cooked in a microwave is a donut. Pro-tip: If you're heating up a bowl of something, dig a hole in the middle and it will reheat better.

But yes, Hot Pockets are the dumbest idea for microwavable food. Even with the crisping sleeve. They need a total redesign.

I find air fryers overrated, but cooking Hot Pockets is one area where they really do excel over all other methods.

Corn dogs too. Onion rings come out OK too.

Fried mushrooms do NOT work in an air fryer...

I also remember seeing some method of making chips in a microwave when I was a kid where you slice them real thin and put them an an acordian folded piece of waxed paper... but I could never get it to work... they were always half raw.
