COOKING TIPS
• Freezing
•
When freezing you should take defrosting in the microwave
into account, by not using aluminium foil or trays and by
freezing in flat portions.
Cooking vegetables
•
If possible, always use fresh vegetables. If vegetables have
become a little limp because they've been left for too long, you
can place them in cold water for a while so that they absorb
moisture.
•
Use a large dish to cook vegetables, so that the dish base is
covered with a not too thick layer.
•
Don't add any water to vegetables than that remaining after
rinsing.
•
Always cover the dish with a cover or microwave foil.
•
Don't add any salt. The salts present naturally in the vegetables
should give sufficient flavour. If you still wish to add salt, you
can do this after cooking.
•
Cook vegetables for the shortest time possible. Take into
account the fact that the vegetables will continue to cook.
•
Check with a satay stick or fork whether the vegetables are
ready.
Cooking fish
• Fish needs to cook evenly For thin fish, oily fish or small
portions set the power to 30%. In other cases you can set the
power somewhat higher. Take continued cooking into account.
Fish is ready when it becomes opaque.
