Abstract
[PROBLEMS] To provide a heating electrode which can uniformly heat a material to be heated having an irregular shape and can stably perform heating/holding-convey of the material to be heated by the heating electrode; and a method for heating food by using the heating electrode. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] An assembly of pin electrodes () formed by conductive pins are slidably arranged in a through hole () of a pin support table (). A pressure-variable gas chamber () whose pressure is variable is connected to the pin support table (). By applying a plus pressure or a minus pressure to the gas chamber (), the pin electrodes () are displaced relatively to the pin support table ().
