Soups and Starters

Guidelines

General Tips - Homemade Soups

General Tips - Starters

POWER LEVEL

Use     1000 W to bring soup to the boil,
then     440 W or     250 W power to cook
(or see individual recipes).  

DEFROSTING FROZEN SOUP

As soups can be stirred easily as they
begin to thaw, it is quicker and usually
more convenient to defrost frozen soup
using     1000 W.
Stir frequently during the defrosting
process to ensure even and thorough
defrosting.

DISH SIZE

Always use a large dish or bowl - at least
twice the capacity of the soup.

REHEATING SOUP

For canned soups, or refrigerated soups,
transfer to a microwave safe container,
cover and reheat on     1000 W stirring
frequently.

COVERING

Always cover soup with microwave cling
film or the lid designed for the dish.

MEAT SOUPS

When converting your favourite meat soup
recipes for microwave, use multi-stage
programming to bring the soup to the boil
on     1000 W for 10 mins. followed by
40-60 mins. on     250 W.

STARTING TEMPERATURE

Remember foods reheated from the fridge
will take slightly longer than food at room
temperature.

COVERING

Keep foods covered with cling film, or
another suitable lid, except for pastry
items.

PASTRY

Pastry items only reheat well by
microwave, if the pastry is very crisp.
During reheating pastry absorbs moisture
from the filling.

50 g (2 oz) butter

25 g (1 oz) flour

Re-cover and cook on     1000 W for
10 mins.

3. Remove bay leaf.

4. Place the bread on high wire rack and

Grill     1 for 2 mins. until lightly
toasted. Turn over and top with grated
