Cooking and heating up in the microwave oven
General notes
Arrange the food in the oven correctly and place the thickest pieces on the outside so
that it cooks properly.
− Note the exact cooking or heating times.
− Choose the shortest available cooking or heating time and extend it if necessary.
WARNING!
Risk of fi re due to very high temperatures.
− Overcooked food can start to smoke or even catch fi re.
− Supervise the cooking process at all times.
− Cover food during cooking or heating with a cover that is suitable for the
microwave oven. Covering the food helps avoid splashes; furthermore, the food
is more evenly cooked.
− Foods such as chicken pieces or hamburgers should be turned once when
cooking in the microwave oven in order to speed up cooking. Larger pieces such
as joints or roasting chickens must be turned at least once.
− It is also important to reposition food, e.g. if cooking meatballs: After half of the
cooking time has expired, the food should be repositioned from top to bottom
and from the inside to the outside.
− After heating, stir the food if possible to ensure even temperatures, otherwise let
the food stand for a short time.
Microwave-suitable materials
You can buy special dishes and accessories for your microwave oven. Look for markings
such as “Microwave-safe” or “For the microwave”. You can also use your existing dishes – if
the material is suitable.
