Cooking and heating up in the
microwave
General notes
• To arrange food so that it cooks properly, place the food with the largest
pieces towards the outer edge.
• Note the exact cooking or heating times.
• Choose the shortest available cooking or heating time and extend it as
necessary.
WARNING!
Overcooked food can start to smoke or even catch fire.
• Cover the food during cooking or heating with a microwave-suitable
cover. Covering the food helps avoid splashes; furthermore the food is
cooked more evenly.
• Foods such as chicken pieces or hamburgers should be turned once
during cooking to speed up cooking. Larger pieces such as roasts or roast
chicken must be turned at least once.
• It is also important to reposition food, e.g. with meatballs. After half of the
cooking time the food should be repositioned from top to bottom and from
the middle to the outside.
