Variable power levels add flexibility to microwave
cooking. The power levels on the microwave oven can
be compared to the surface units on a range. Each
power level gives you microwave energy a certain
percent of the time.
Power level 7
is microwave energy
70% of the time.
Power level 3
is energy 30% of the
time. Most cooking will be done on HI which gives you
100% power.
HI power level
will cook faster but food
may need more frequent stirring, rotating or turning
over. A lower setting
will cook more evenly and need less stirring or rotating
of the food. Some foods may have better flavor, texture
or appearance if one of the lower settings is used. Use
a lower power level when cooking foods that have a
tendency to boil over, such as scalloped potatoes.
Rest periods (when the microwave energy cycles off)
give time for the food to “equalize” or transfer heat to
the inside of the food. An example of this is shown with
power level 3
³WKHGHIURVWF\FOH,IPLFURZDYHHQHUJ\
did not cycle off, the outside of the food would cook
before the inside was defrosted.

levels:

baking casseroles and reheating.

Slow cooking and tenderizing for stews
and less tender cuts of meat.
