Cooking Guide for rice and pasta
Rice:
Use a large glass pyrex bowl with lid - rice doubles in
volume during cooking. Cook covered.
After the cooking time is over, stir before standing time and
salt or add herbs and butter.
Remark: the rice may not have absorbed all water after the
cooking time is finished.
Pasta:
Use a large glass pyrex bowl. Add boiling water, a pinch of
salt and stir well. Cook uncovered.
Stir occasionally during and after cooking. Cover during
standing time and drain thoroughly afterwards.

REHEATING
Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that
conventional ovens hobs normally take.
Use the power levels and reheating times in the following chart as a guide.
The times in the chart consider liquids with a room temperature of about
+18 to +20 °C or a chilled food with a temperature of about +5 to +7 °C.
Arranging and covering
Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat - they tend to overcook
and dry out before the centre is piping hot. Reheating small pieces will be
more successful.
Power levels and stirring
Some foods can be reheated using 900 W power while others should be
reheated using 600 W, 450 W or even 300 W.
Check the tables for guidance.
