11.4 Cooking eggs in your microwave
¡ Never cook eggs in the shell and never warm hard-
cooked eggs in the shell; they can explode.
¡ Always pierce the yolk on whole eggs to keep them
from bursting.
¡ Cook eggs just until set; they will become tough if
overcooked.
¡ Cooking scrambled eggs is safe.
11.5 Cooking vegetables in your microwave
¡ Wash the vegetables just before cooking. Extra water is
rarely needed. If dense vegetables such as potatoes or
carrots are being cooked, add about ¼ cup of water.
¡ Small vegetables, such as sliced carrots, peas or lima
beans, will cook faster than larger vegetables.
11.6 Cooking seafood in your microwave
¡ Be sure to place fish on a microwave-safe roasting rack
in a microwave-safe dish.
¡ Be sure to always cook fish until it flakes easily with a
fork.

¡ Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash,
corn on the cob, etc., should be arranged in a circle on
the turntable before cooking. They will cook more
evenly if turned over halfway through cooking.
¡ Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli
with the stem ends pointing towards the edge of the
dish and the tips toward the center.
¡ When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish
with a lid or vented microwavable plastic wrap.
¡ For whole, unpeeled vegetables, such as potatoes,
sweet potatoes, squash, eggplant, etc., prick the skin of
the vegetables in several locations before cooking to
prevent them from bursting.
¡ For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole
vegetables halfway through the cook time.
¡ The denser the food, the longer the required standing
time. For example, a baked potato should stand for
5 minutes before serving, while a dish of peas may be
served immediately.
¡ Use a tight cover to steam fish; a lighter cover of wax
paper or paper towel provides less steaming.
¡ Be sure not to overcook fish; check it for doneness at
the minimum cooking time before cooking longer.
