Tips for the microwave

You cannot find details for the
amount of food prepared.
Look for a similar food. Increase or shorten
the length of the cooking times according to
the following rule:
Double the amount = al-
most double the timeHalf the amount =
half the time
The food has got too dry.
Set shorter cooking time or select lower mi-
crowave power.
The food is still not defrosted, hot
or cooked after the time has
elapsed.
Set longer cooking time or select higher mi-
crowave power. Please note that taller
dishes need longer.
After the cooking time has
elapsed, the food is overheated at
the edge but is still not ready in the
middle.
Next time select a lower power and a longer
time. Stir liquids, e. g. soup, halfway
through.
