15.5 Tips on defrosting, heating and
cooking with the microwave next time
Follow these tips for good results when defrosting,
heating and cooking with the microwave.
Issue Tip
Your food is too dry.
¡
Reduce the cooking
time or select a lower
microwave power set-
ting.

Cover the food and
add more liquid.

your food is not yet done
on the inside, but is
already overdone on the
outside.

Reduce the microwave
power setting and in-
crease the cooking

poultry or meat is defros-
ted on the outside but not
