MICROWAVE

Container shape is key when it comes to reheating food. Rectangular ones usually attract more energy to their corners than to other areas, leaving the food in those spots overcooked. A round container, on the other hand, allows leftovers to reheat more uniformly. And don’t add seasonings until you’re done nuking the meal. Microwave energy is drawn to salt, so a seasoned top will collect heat and leave the outer layer of your food dry. If you’d rather add salt first, mix it in thoroughly.
