Food Characteristics

Bone and Fat

Both bone and fat affect cook-

ing. Bones may cause irregular 

cooking. Meat next to the tips 

of bones may overcook while 

meat positioned under a large bone, such 

as a ham bone, may be undercooked. 

Large amounts of fat absorb microwave 

energy and the meat next to these areas 

may overcook.

Density

Porous, airy foods such as 

breads, cakes or rolls take 

less time to cook than heavy, 

dense foods such as potatoes 

and roasts. When reheating donuts or 

other foods with different centers be very 

careful. Certain foods have centers made 

with sugar, water, or fat and these centers 

attract microwaves (For example, jelly do-

nuts). When a jelly donut is heated, the jelly 

can become extremely hot while the exte-

rior remains warm to the touch. This could 

result in a burn if the food is not allowed to 

cool properly in the center.

Quantity

Two potatoes take longer to cook 

than one potato. As the quantity 

of the food decreases so does 

the cooking time. Overcooking 

will cause the moisture content 

in the food to decrease and a 

fi

 re 

could result. Never leave microwave unat-

tended while in use.

Shape

Uniform sizes heat more 

evenly. The thin end of a 

drumstick will cook more 

quickly than the meaty 

end. To compensate for irregular shapes, 

place thin parts toward the center of the 

dish and thick pieces toward the edge.

Size

Thin pieces cook more 

quickly than thick pieces.

Starting Temperature

Foods that are at room temperature 

take less time to cook than if they 

are chilled, refrigerated, or frozen.

Cooking Techniques

Piercing

Foods with skins or mem-

branes must be pierced 

scored or have a strip of skin 

peeled before cooking to al-

low steam to escape. Pierce clams, oysters, 

chicken livers, whole potatoes and whole 

vegetables. Whole apples or new potatoes 

should have a 1-inch strip of skin peeled 

before cooking. Score sausages and frank-

furters. Do not Cook/Reheat whole eggs 

with or without the shell. Steam build up in 

whole eggs may cause them to explode, 

and possibly damage the oven or cause 

injury. Reheating SLICED hard-boiled eggs 

and cooking SCRAMBLED eggs is safe.

Browning

Foods will not have the 

same brown appearance 

as conventionally cooked 

foods or those foods which 

are cooked utilizing a browning feature. 

Meats and poultry may be coated with 

browning sauce, Worcestershire sauce, 

barbecue sauce or shake-on browning 

sauce. To use, combine browning sauce 

with melted butter or margarine and brush 

on before cooking. For quick breads or muf-

fi

 ns, brown sugar can be used in the recipe 

in place of granulated sugar, or the surface 

can be sprinkled with dark spices before 

baking.

Spacing

Individual foods, such as 

baked potatoes, cupcakes 

and appetizers, will cook 

more evenly if placed in 

the oven equal distances 

apart. When possible, arrange foods in a 

circular pattern.
