Suggestions for best results
To help you achieve the best possible results from your
microwave oven, read the following suggestions below:
Storage temperature
▯
Foods taken from the freezer or refrigerator take
longer to cook.
Size
▯
Small pieces of food cook faster than large ones.
Pieces similar in size and shape will cook more evenly
when cooked together. For more even results, reduce
the power levels when cooking large pieces of food.
Natural moisture
▯
Very moist foods cook more evenly because
microwave energy heats water molecules very
efficiently.
Stirring
▯
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables from the
outside to the center to distribute the heat more
evenly. This will allow the food to cook faster.
(Constant stirring is not necessary.)
Turning
▯
Turn over foods such as pork chops, roasts or whole
cauliflower halfway through the cook time. This will
help to expose all sides equally to microwave energy.
Placing food
▯
Place delicate areas of food items, such as asparagus
tips, toward the center of the turntable tray.
