COOKING TIPS
The following factors may affect the cooking result:
Food arrangement
Place thicker areas towards outside of dish, the thinner part towards the centre
and spread it evenly. Do not overlap if possible.
Cooking time length
Start cooking with a short time setting, evaluate it after it times out and extend
it according to the actual need. Over cooking may result in smoke and burns.
Cooking food evenly
Food such as chicken, hamburger or steak should be turned once during
cooking.
Depending on the type of food, if applicable, stir it from outside to centre of dish
once or twice during cooking.
Allow standing time
After cooking times out, leave the food in the oven for an adequate length
of time, this allows it to complete its cooking cycle and cooling it down in a
gradual manner.
Whether the food is done
Color and hardness of food help to determine if it is done, these include:
-
Steam coming out from all parts of food, not just the edge
-
Joints of poultry can be moved easily
-
Pork or poultry shows no signs of blood
-
Fish is opaque and can be sliced easily with a fork
Browning dish
When using a browning dish or self-heating container, always place a heat-
resistant insulator such as a porcelain plate under it to prevent damage to the
turntable and rotating ring.
Microwave safe plastic wrap
When cooking food with high fat content, do not allow the plastic wrap to come
