Variable power levels add fle [ ibility to
microwave cooking. The power levels on
the microwave oven can be compared to
the surface units on a range. Each power
level gives you microwave energy a certain
percent of the time. Power level 7 is
microwave energy 70% of the time. Power
level 3 is energy 30% of the time. Most
cooking will be done on HI which gives you
100% power. HI power level will cook faster
but food may need more frequent stirring,
rotating or turning over. A lower setting
will cook more evenly and need less stirring
or rotating of the food. Some foods may have
better flavor, te [ ture or appearance
if one of the lower settings is used. Use a
lower power level when cooking foods
that have a tendency to boil over, such as
scalloped potatoes.
Rest periods (when the microwave energy
cycles off) give time for the food to “equalize”
or transfer heat to the inside
of the food. An e [ ample of this is shown with
power level 3 ³ the defrost cycle.
If microwave energy did not cycle off,
the outside of the food would cook before
the inside was defrosted.
Here are some examples of uses for various
power levels:
HI: Fish, bacon, vegetables, boiling liquids.
Med-High 7: Gentle cooking of meat and
poultry; baking casseroles and reheating.
Medium 5: Slow cooking and tenderizing for
stews and less tender cuts of meat.
Low 2 or 3: Defrosting; simmering; delicate
sauces.
Warm 1: Keeping food warm; softening
butter.
