Make Bacon
1. Fully expand the microwave bowl (Fig. B, page 3). Position the bacon rack between
the handles so the Presto logo is facing up and the rack is within the rack guides on the
bowl rim (Fig. C, page 3).
2. Drape the desired number of bacon slices over the rack,
allowing excess to hang in the bowl. Up to 5 slices of
bacon will fit on each side of the rack, depending on the
width of the bacon slices. For best cooking results, do not
overlap the bacon slices (Fig. D).
NOTE:
As you place the bacon on the rack, it will touch
the bottom and sides of the bowl. This is okay, since the
bacon will shrink as it cooks.
3. Place cover on bowl and position bowl in center of microwave oven. Cook at full
power (HIGH), allowing 40 to 60 seconds per slice of bacon. Begin with the minimum
recommended cooking time. For example, if cooking 6 slices of bacon, set cook time
for 4 minutes (240 seconds). Cooking time will depend on the microwave and the type,
thickness, and fat content of the bacon.
4. After the minimum recommended cooking time, check to see if bacon is done. If more
cooking time is desired, place covered unit back in microwave and cook in 30 second
intervals until bacon is done.
CAUTION!
To prevent burns, carefully handle the microwave bowl when it contains
hot bacon drippings.
5. Line a plate with paper towels. Then, using tongs, carefully grasp one side of the bacon
rack and lift the rack onto the plate.
6. Remove bacon from rack immediately after cooking and flatten out on plate.
7. Allow bacon drippings to cool. Then pour drippings from one of the corner spouts on
the multi-cooker bowl.
Helpful Hints:
• Allow bacon to warm up just long enough so slices separate easily. This will make the
bacon easier to drape over the bacon rack without stretching.
• For more evenly cooked bacon, choose bacon that is uniform in width.
