Popcorn for the microwave
Notes
■
Use heat-resistant, flat glass ovenware, e.g. the lid of an
ovenproof dish, a glass plate or a glass tray (Pyrex)
■
Always place the ovenware on the wire rack.
■
Do not use porcelain or overly curved plates.
■
Make the settings as described in the table. You can adjust the
timings according to product and amount.
■
So that the popcorn doesn't burn, briefly take the popcorn bag
out of the oven after 1 minute and 30 seconds and shake it.
Take care as the bag will be hot!
Risk of scalding!
■
Open the popcorn bag carefully as hot steam may be released.
■
Never set the microwave to full power.

Notes
■
The times given apply to food placed in a cold oven.
■
The temperature and baking time depend on the consistency
and amount of the mixture. This is why temperature ranges are
given in the tables. Begin with the lower temperature and, if
necessary, use a higher setting the next time, since a lower
temperature results in more even browning.
■
Additional information can be found in the
Baking tips section
following the tables.
■
Always place the cake tin in the centre of the lower wire rack.

You cannot find any information about the settings for the
quantity of food you have prepared.
Increase or reduce the cooking times using the following rule of
thumb:
Double the amount = almost double the cooking time
Half the amount = half the cooking time
The food has become too dry.
Next time, set a shorter cooking time or select a lower microwave
power setting. Cover the food and add more liquid.
When the time has elapsed, the food is not defrosted, hot or
cooked.
Set a longer time. Large quantities and food which is piled high
require longer times.
When the time has elapsed, the food is overheated at the edge
but not done in the middle.
Stir it during the cooking time and next time, select a lower microwave
power setting and a longer cooking time.
After defrosting, the poultry or meat is defrosted on the outside
but not defrosted in the middle.
Next time, select a lower microwave power setting. If you are
defrosting a large quantity, turn it several times.
