Cooking with a microwave oven
Warning! Read the section “Microwave
Safety” before cooking with your
microwave
.
Follow these recommendations when
cooking with your microwave:
Before heating or cooking foods with
peel or skin (e.g. apples, tomatoes,
potatoes, sausages) prick them so that
they do not burst. Cut the food up before
starting to prepare it.
Before using a container or dish make
sure that it is suitable for microwave use
(see the section on types of ovenware).
When cooking food with very little
moisture (e.g. defrosting bread , making
popcorn, etc.) evaporation is very quick.
The oven then works as if it was empty
and the food may burn. The oven and
the container may be damaged in such a
situation. You should therefore set just
the cooking time necessary and you
must keep a close eye on the cooking
process.
It is not possible to heat large quantities
of oil ( frying ) in the microwave.
Remove pre-cooked food from the
containers they come in since these are
not always heat resistant. Follow the
food manufacturer’s instructions.
If you have several containers , such as
cups, for example, set them out uniformly
on the turntable plate.
Do not close plastic bags with metal
clips. Use plastic clips instead. Prick the
bags several times so that the steam can
escape easily.
When heating or cooking foods, check
that they reach at least a temperature
of 70°C .
During cooking, steam may form on the
oven door window and may start to drip.
This situation is normal and may be more
noticeable if the room temperature is low.
The oven’s safe working is not affected
by this. After you have finished cooking,
clean up the water coming from the
condensation
When heating liquids, use containers
with a wide opening , so that the steam
can evaporate easily.
Prepare the foods as per the instructions and
keep in mind the cooking times and power
levels indicated in the tables.
Keep in mind that the figures given are only
indicative and can vary depending on the
initial state, temperature, moisture and type
of food. It is advisable to adjust the times and
power levels to each situation. Depending on
the exact characteristics of the food you may
need to increase or shorten the cooking
times or increase or decrease the power
levels.
