The present invention provides a cooking apparatus including a base member having a placing face on which food is placed, and a heat generation layer (3) made of a microwave heat generator containing ferrite which absorbs microwave energy and generates heat. The ferrite contains Fe 2 O 3 , MnO, and ZnO, and a ratio by weight of the Fe 2 O 3 to the ZnO lies in a range of 11 to 24. With the configuration, the temperature of the placing face of a grill pan as the cooking apparatus can be increased to predetermined temperature in short time and can be saturated to allowable heat resistant temperature or less of the material of the grill pan. Therefore, improvement in the performance of the grill pan cooking and durability, safety, and reliability can be realized. |
