thick slice. The slow heating thick slice often causes the bread to overcook before the meat is hot.
Sandwiches may be placed on a paper plate. Remove wrapping immediately after warming. Already-
baked frozen breads and rolls may be used for sandwiches. The filling, however, should be thawed first.
Toasted bread is fine for sandwiches and provides a firm base. The toast is warmed only; no further
browning occurs.

PASTA & GRAINS
Guide for Cooking Pasta and Grains
Raw long grain rice takes time to rehydrate. Microwaving time is a little shorter than conventional, but
the greatest advantage is the ease with which you can prepare fluffy rice without sticking or burning.
Cooked rice and pasta reheat easily in the microwave oven without loss of flavor or texture. No extra
water is needed to prevent sticking or drying, so there's no danger of overcooking rice and pasta or
thinning
sauces.

CONVENIENCE FOODS
Frozen Foods
A large variety of frozen foods, special dishes and dinners are available and the selections continue to
increase. The
market is changing rapidly, therefore it is impossible to list the foods and types available and
recommend cooking procedures. In this book we can only give general directions to assist you.
T.V. Dinners
To prepare a T.V. dinner, follow the maker’s instructions for use with microwave ovens. Cooking a T.V.
dinner will require approximately five to seven minutes for the food to thaw and heat to serving
temperature (depending on the types of food).
Allow plastic wrap to remain over the dish for two minutes to allow heat to equalize. Dinners that contain
mashed potatoes have presented a bit of a problem due to the large compact mass of this particular
food. You may want to remove about half the mashed potatoes after defrosting is started, then spread
