Ingredients
Foods containing fat, sugar or salt heat up very
quickly. The filling may be much hotter than the
pastry. Take care when eating. Do not overheat
even if the pastry does not appear to be very hot.
Starting temperature
The colder the food, the longer it takes to heat
up. Food from a fridge takes longer to reheat
than food at room temperature.
Covering
Cover foods with microwave cling film or a
self-fitting lid. Cover fish, vegetables,
casseroles, soups. Do not cover cakes, sauces,
jacket potatoes, pastry items.
Turning and stirring
Some foods require stirring during cooking.
Meat and poultry should be turned after half the
cooking time.
Liquids
All liquids must be stirred
before
and
during
heating. Water espe cially must be stirred
before and during heating, to avoid eruption.
Do not heat liquids that have previously been
boiled. DO NOT OVERHEAT.
Cleaning
As microwaves work on food particles, keep your
oven clean at all times. Stubborn spots of food
can be removed by using a branded oven cleaner,
sprayed onto a soft cloth, always wipe the oven
dry after cleaning. Avoid any plastic parts and
door area.
