People who love baking may have encountered the following awkward situation: they want to make a batch of freshly produced chocolate baking, and when they put all the ingredients on the kitchen surface, they found a serious problem. The food recipe requires room-temperature cream, and there is only a piece of hard refrigerated cream on their hands directly from the refrigerator. According to the Daily Meal website, the Daily Meal report, although you can wait for a while or heat it with a microwave, the risk of doing this is that the cream will eventually become oily and melt into a mess, and it will be even more troublesome after cleaning it.

The solution suggested by Daily Meal is to soften the cold cream to room temperature by using the defrosting function of microwave ovens without turning it into a batter of oil. A popular video on the social network TikTok showed this trick: just cut the cold butter into about one spoonful of servings, put it on a microwaveable plate, put it in a microwave oven, set the unsalted 10 seconds; then turn the butter to the other side, unsalted again for 5 to 7 seconds, and the perfect room temperature cream is done.

Another TikTok user also shared a little secret to note. She said that some microwave furnaces have softening settings. The reason why she proposed to share was that she hoped that others could save her half a year of wasting this function before.

Daily Meal pointed out that using microwaves to dehydrate cream is not a good listener, bakery food company Land O' Lakes has listed this on its website as a way to quickly soften cream to room temperature. The company's website explains that if you only want to soften the cream for smearing, you can use the microwave to de-smooth setting, every 5 seconds as a unit until it is softened to the ideal level; when you can easily press the cream with your thumb and index finger, it means that the optimal temperature has been achieved.
