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 than the same foods would at room
temperature.
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 vegetable 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.
Turn over items
▯
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.
Food placement
▯
Place delicate areas of food items, such as asparagus
tips, toward the center of the turntable tray.
Food arrangement
▯
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken
pieces or salmon, with the thicker or meatier parts
toward the outside of the turntable tray.
Let food stand
▯
After removing the food from the microwave, cover the
food with foil or a casserole lid and let it stand to finish
cooking. This will help the food finish cooking in the
center and avoids overcooking the outer edges. The
length of stand time depends on the density and
surface area of the food items.
Wrapping in paper towels or wax paper
▯
Sandwiches and many other food types containing
pre-baked bread should be wrapped prior to placing in
the microwave to help prevent the food items from
drying out while heating.
Adding cook time (+30 Seconds)
This time-saving feature will let you quickly add
30 seconds to any cook time. +30 Seconds will also start
the microwave with 30 seconds at 100% power level.
Each time you touch the +30 Seconds key, 30 seconds
will be added to the cook time.
