Flash freezing things is a thing.

Well, it does exist, it's called laser cooling, but it's only if you want to have things really cold

Flash freezing is how frozen foods are made.

Call it Macrowave!

It's a lot easier to generate heat from electricity than to transfer them out. Closest bet would be just blasting cold air but heat transfer will be slow so it's still quite limited.

Liquid nitrogen bath, works opposite of a microwave, freezes it from outside and towards the middle.

You would need to find a way to make food spontaneously emit microwaves so it loses energy and cools off. That probably involves altering the strength of one of the nuclear forces or something.

You should try to build a chamber that sprays liquid nitrogen or other cryogenic liquids at the food.

Idk, good luck.
