MICROWAVE FOOD PRODUCT WITH VENT FOR ROASTING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240043195 titled 'MICROWAVE FOOD PRODUCT WITH VENT FOR ROASTING

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for single-use pre-packaged frozen food products that can be roasted in a microwave oven. The food product is placed in a sealed pouch made of flexible material, which has inflatable segments that create an interface between a susceptor material and the food. The pouch also includes vents to release moisture during the microwave process while retaining enough moisture to inflate the segments and interface the susceptor with the frozen food. This innovation facilitates roasting, crisping, browning, or otherwise cooking of the frozen food.

  • The patent application describes single-use pre-packaged frozen food products for roasting in a microwave oven.

Original Abstract Submitted

single-use pre-packaged frozen food products are described that are configured for roasting the food product in a microwave oven. in aspects, a sealed pouch is formed from a flexible material defining a plurality of inflatable segments to create an interface between a susceptor material and the food product. one or more vents are included through the flexible material to release moisture as the food product is subjected to the microwave process while retaining enough moisture to inflate the inflatable segments to interface the susceptor with the frozen food during microwave cooking, which can facilitate roasting, crisping, browning, or otherwise cooking of the frozen food.
