•  Vegetables should be washed just before cooking.

Often, no extra water is needed. If dense vegeta-
bles such as potatoes, carrots and green beans
are being cooked, add about 1/4 cup water.

•  Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans,

etc.) will cook faster than larger ones.

•  Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn

squash or corn on the cob, should be arranged in
a circle on the turntable before cooking.  They will
cook more evenly if turned over after half the
cooking time.

•  Always place vegetables like asparagus and broc-

coli with the stem ends pointing towards the edge
of the dish and the tips toward the center.

•  When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the

dish with a lid or vented microwavable plastic
wrap.   

•  Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes,

squash, eggplant, etc., should have their skin
pricked in several spots before cooking to prevent
them from bursting.

•  For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole

vegetables halfway through the cooking time.

•  Generally, the denser the food, the longer the

standing time.  (Standing time refers to the time
necessary for dense, large foods and vegetables
to finish cooking after they come out of the oven.)
A baked potato can stand on the counter for five
minutes before cooking is completed, while a dish
of peas can be served immediately.

GUIDE for Cooking Eggs in Your Microwave

•  Never cook eggs in the shell, and never warm hard-cooked eggs in the shell; they can explode.
• Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting.
• Cook eggs just until set; they become tough if overcooked.

GUIDE for Cooking Seafood in Your Microwave

• Cook fish until it flakes easily with a fork.
• Place fish on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish. 
• Use a tight cover to steam fish. A lighter cover of wax paper or paper towel provides less steaming.
•  Do not overcook fish; check it at minimum cooking time.
