Cooking Instructions
Cooking Techniques
Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables
while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at
the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and
heats more quickly, so stir from the outside to
the center. The oven will turn off when you open
the door to stir your food.
Arrangement
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as
chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker,
meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable
where they receive more microwave energy. To
prevent overcooking, place thin or delicate parts
toward the center of the turntable.
Shielding
Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to
prevent overcooking. Areas that need shielding
include poultry wing-tips, the ends of poultry
legs, and corners of square baking dishes. Use
only small amounts of aluminum foil. Larger
amounts can damage your oven.
Turning
Turn foods over midway through cooking to
expose all parts to microwave energy. This is
especially important with large items such as
roasts.
Standing
Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal
heat and continue to cook for a few minutes
after the oven stops. Let foods stand to
complete cooking, especially foods such as
roasts and whole vegetables. Roasts need this
time to complete cooking in the center without
overcooking the outer areas. All liquids, such as
soup or hot chocolate, should be shaken or
stirred when cooking is complete. Let liquids
stand a moment before serving. When heating
baby food, stir well and test the temperature
before serving.
Adding Moisture
Microwave energy is attracted to water
molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture
content should be covered or allowed to stand
so that the heat disperses evenly. Add a small
amount of water to dry food to help it cook.
General Tips
• Dense foods, such as potatoes, take longer
to heat than lighter foods. Foods with a
delicate texture should be heated at a low
power level to avoid becoming tough.
• Altitude and the type of cookware you are
using can affect cooking time. When using a
new recipe, use the minimum cooking time
and check the food occasionally to prevent
overcooking.
• Foods with a non-porous skin or shell, such
as potatoes, eggs, or hot dogs, should be
pierced to prevent bursting.
• Frying with heating oil or fat is not
recommended. Fat and oil can suddenly boil
over and cause severe burns.
• Some ingredients heat faster than others.
For example, the jelly inside a jelly doughnut
will be hotter than the dough. Keep this in
mind to avoid burns.
• Home canning in the microwave oven is not
recommended because all harmful bacteria
may not be destroyed by the microwave
heating process.
• Although microwaves do not heat the
cookware, the heat is often transferred to the
cookware. Always use pot holders when
removing food from the microwave and
instruct children to do the same.
