1. ARRANGEMENT
Arrange foods carefully. Place thickest areas toward outside of dish.
Eg. Arrange vegetables in a shallow dish in the following way:
Hard Vegetables around the outside, Soft Vegetables in the
centre, Medium Vegetables in-between.
2. COVERING
Cover foods in the microwave if you would normally cover the food in your ordinary oven,
or to retain moisture. Cover foods such as Vegetables, Casseroles, or when Reheating.
Use to cover foods:
3. SHIELDING
Shield using small pieces of aluminium foil to shield thin areas of meat, fish and poultry or
edges of cakes to prevent overcooking.
4. STIRRING
Stir foods from the outside to the centre of the dish, once or twice during cooking if possible.
Eg. Casseroles and Sauces.
5. PIERCING
Pierce potatoes, eggs, oysters, tomatoes or any foods with a skin or membrane to allow
steam to escape.
6. STANDING TIME
Standing time is important. After cooking or defrosting ensure adequate standing time. This
allows the food to continue cooking or heating. Refer to cooking guides for each menu or
according to manufacturers instructions.
7. CONDENSATION
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. The humidity and moisture in food will
influence the amount of condensation in the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause
as much condensation as uncovered foods. Ensure that the ventilation openings are not
blocked.
