Basic principles of microwave cookery
•
Arrange the food with consideration.
•
The thickest parts near the edges.
•
Pay attention to the cooking time. Select the
shortest possible stated cooking time and in-
crease as required. Food that is cooked too
long can begin to smoke or catch fire.
•
Cover the food during cooking with a lid suitable
for microwave cookery. The lid prevents splashing
and helps in the even cooking of the food.
•
While cooking, turn the food in the microwave
once so that items such as chicken or hamburgers
are cooked more quickly.
•
Large pieces of food, such as joints of meat,
must be turned at least once.
•
Completely re-arrange foods such as meatballs
after half the cooking time. Turn them and
move the meatballs from the middle of the
cookware to the edge.
Use suitable cookware
•
The ideal material for a microwave oven is
microwave-permeable, allowing the energy
to penetrate the container to heat the food.
Microwaves cannot permeate metal. For this
reason metal containers and cookware may
not be used.
•
When using the microwave for heating do not
use products made of recycled paper. These
can contain minute fragments of metal, which
can generate sparks and/or fires.
•
We recommend the use of round/oval cook-
ware instead of square or oblong containers,
as food in corner areas tends to overcook.
The following list provides general hints to
assist you in selecting the correct cookware.
