Cook By Radio
OOK a hot dinner in a couple of minutes! Sounds fantastic, doesn’t it? But it’s more than a mere Utopian fancy-it could be a probability in the housewife’s post-war world. This new current-time-and-temper-saver will be a radio cooker, the result of the wartime development of the short-wave radio. Instead of heat waves radiating from the sides of the oven and raising the temperature of the air as in an ordinary electric cooker, the radio waves will heat the food by passing through it. Maybe in our world of to-morrow the housewife will arrive home at six o’clock, put your meat, vegetables, and sweet in the oven, switch on the current, turn the dial to regulate the heating power of the radio waves according to their frequency and the kind of food in the oven, and at five past six serve up a well-cooked roast dinner to the family.
