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 850 W power while others should be reheated
using 600 W, 450 W or even 300 W.
Check the tables for guidance. In general, it is better to reheat food using a lower
power level, if the food is delicate, in large quantities, or if it is likely to heat up
very quickly (mince pies, for example). Stir well or turn food over during reheating
for best results. When possible, stir again before serving. Take particular care
when heating liquids and baby foods. To prevent eruptive boiling of liquids
and possible scalding, stir before, during and after heating. Keep them in the
microwave oven during standing time. We recommend putting a plastic spoon or
glass stick into the liquids. Avoid overheating (and therefore spoiling) the food.
It is preferable to underestimate cooking time and add extra heating time, if
necessary.
Heating and standing times
When reheating food for the first time, it is helpful to make a note of the time
taken – for future reference. Always make sure that the reheated food is piping
hot throughout. Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating - to let
the temperature even out. The recommended standing time after reheating is
2-4 minutes, unless another time is recommended in the chart. Take particular
care when heating liquids and baby food. See also the chapter with the safety
precautions.
