Tips for the microwave
Problem Remedy
You cannot find details for the amount
of food prepared.
Look for a similar food. Increase or shorten the
length of the cooking times according to the follow‐
ing rule: Double the amount = almost double the
time, Half the amount = half the time
The food got too dry. Set shorter cooking time or select lower microwave
power.
The food is not defrosted, hot or
cooked after the time came to an end.
Set longer cooking time or set higher power. Note
that large dishes need longer time.
After the cooking time comes to an
end, the food is overheated at the edge
but is still not ready in the middle.
Next time set a lower power and a longer time. Stir
liquids halfway through, e.g. soup.
To get better results for rice use a flat,
wide dish.
Defrosting
Always defrost roast with the fat side
down.
Do not defrost covered meat because this
may cause cooking instead of defrosting.
Always defrost whole poultry breast side
down.
Cooking
Always remove chilled meat and poultry
from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes
before cooking.
Let the meat, poultry, fish and vegetables
stay covered after cooking.
Brush a little oil or melted butter over the
fish.
