6 Tips and tricks
6.1 Heating up
➤
With the exception of soups, sauces and drinks, all food must be covered
when being heated up to prevent it drying out.
➤
When heating liquids, place a teaspoon in the vessel to prevent delayed
boiling (or superboiling).
➤
Turn or stir the food halfway through time for more even heating.
➤
At the end of cooking, allow the food to stand in the cooking space for
another 1–2 minutes for more even heating.
➤
Several small portions heat faster and more evenly than a single large
portion.
➤
Always add a little liquid to rice and pasta.
6.2 Defrosting
The defrosting time mainly depends on the shape, quantity and initial temper-
ature of the food. Please take note of the following advice:
➤
Food defrosts more evenly if it is turned or stirred halfway through time.
➤
Take products such as butter, curd cheese, etc. out of their packaging and
put in a suitable container.
➤
When freezing food, make sure the portions are as flat and small as
possible.
Various tips on settings and recipes can be found in the accompa-
nying recipe binder.
Parts of food that are delicate, such as poultry wings and legs, may
be covered with a little aluminium foil. Aluminium reflects the micro-
waves, protecting the food from drying out. Make sure the metal is at
least 2 cm away from the walls of the cooking space. Otherwise,
arcing can occur which can damage your appliance.
