Do not touch several pads at onetime or touch between pads. A beep sound should be heard with each touch when a pad is touched correctly. ’Do not hit or strike the control with objects such as silverware, utensils, etc. Breakage may occur. 'Be carelul when taking the cooking utensils out ol the oven. Some dishes absorb heat from the cooked loud and may be hot. ‘Do not rinse cooking utensils by immediately placing them into water just alter cooking. This may cause breakage. Allow the turntable to cool. 'Use only specilic glass utensils. See cooking utensils section in this manual. 'Do not operate the oven empty. Either lood or water should always be in the oven during operation to absorb microwave energy. 'Do not use your microwave oven to dry newspapers or clothes. They can catch lire. 'Use only thermometers approved tor microwave oven cooking. 'Be certain the turntable is in place when you operate the oven. “Pierce the skin oi potatoes, whole squash, apples, or any truil or vegetable which has a skin covering belore cooking. 'Never use your microwave oven to cook eggs in the shell. Pressure can build up more the shell, causing it to burst. “Do not pop popcorn, except in a microwave-sale container or commercial package designed especially tor microwave ovens. Never try to pop popcorn in a paper bag not designed tor microwave oven use. Overcooking may result in smoke and tire. Do not repop unpopped kernels. Do not reuse popcorn bags. GETTING THE BEST RESULTS FROM YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN Keep an eye on things. The instructions In this book have been formulated with great care, but your success in preparing them depends, oi course, on how much attention you pay to the tood as it cooks. Always watch your iood while it cooks. Your microwave oven is equipped with a light that turns on automatically when the oven is in operation so that you can see inside and check the progress oi your recipe. Directions given in recipes to elevate, stir. and the like should be thought oi as the minimum steps recommended, It the food seems to be cooking unevenly. simply make the necessary adjustments you think appropriate to correct the problem. Factors affecting cooking times. Many lactors allect cooking times. The temperature oI ingredients used in a recipe makes a big dillerence in cooking times. For example, a cake made with ice—cold butter, milk, and eggs will take considerably longer to bake than one made wrth ingredients that are at room temperature. All oi the recipes in this book give a range oi cooking times. in general, you will lind that the load remains under-cooked at the lower end of the time range, and you may sometimes want to cook your lood beyond the maximum time given, according to personal preterence. The governing philosophy oI this book is that it is best tor a recipe to be conservative in giving cooking times. While undercooked lood may always be cooked a bit more, overcooked iood is ruined tor good. Some oi the recipes, particularly those for bread, cakes. and custard, recommend that Iood be removed lrom the oven when they are slightly undercooked. This is not a mistake. When allowed to stand, usually covered, these leads will continue to cook outside of the oven as the heat trapped within the outer portions or the loods gradually travels inward. it the toods are tell in the oven until they are cooked all the way through, the outer portions will become overcooked or even burnt. As you gain experience in using your microwave oven, you will become increasingly skillful in estimating both cooking and standing times for various Ioods. “I?“ . FIlIiQ' 0311.1” til Zl.\.\f Jllfii‘lti OTHER HELPFUL INFORMATION SPECIAL TECHNIQUES IN MICROWAVE COOKING Browning: Meats and poultry that are cooked lirteen minutes or longer will brown lightly in their own lat. Foods that are cooked tor a shorter period ol time may be brushed with a browning sauce to achieve an appetizing color. The most commonly used browning sauces are Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and barbecue sauce, Since relatively small amounts ol browning sauces are added to loads, the original tlavor ol recipes is not altered Covering: A cover traps heal and steam and causes lood to cook more quickly. You may either use a lid or microwave cling»lilm with a corner lolded back to prevent splitting Covering with waxed paper: Waxed paper atleclively prevents spattering and helps Iood retain some heat. Since it makes a looser cover than a lid or cling-tilm, it allows the lood to dry out slightly, Wrapping in waxed paper or paper towel: Sandwiches and many other foods containing prebaked bread should be wrapped prior to microwaving to prevent drying out. Arranging and spacing: Individual toods such as baked potatoes, small cakes, and hors d'oeuvres will heat more evenly il placed in the oven and equal distance apan, preferably in a circular pattern. Never stack foods on top at one another. Stirring: Stirring is one of the most important at all microwaving techniques In conventional cooking, loods are stirred tor the purpose ol blending. Microwaved loods, however, are stirred in order to spread and redistribute heat. Always stir trom the outside towards the center as the outside lood heats first. Turning over: Large, tall loods such as roasts and whole chickens should be turned so that the top and bottom will cook evenly. it is also a good idea to turn cut-up chicken and chops. Placing thicker portions near the edge: Since microwaves are attracted to the outside portion of loods. it makes sense to place thicker portions ol meat, poultry and lish to the outer edge oi the baking dish, This way, thicker portions will receive the most microwave energy and the ioods will cook evenly. Elevating: Thick or dense loods are olten elevated so that microwaves can be absorbed by the underside and center 01 the foods. Piercing: Foods enclosed in a shell, skin, or membrane are likely to burst in the oven unless they are pierced prior to cooking. Such loods include both yolks and whites 01 eggs, clams and oysters. and many whole vegetables and lruits. Testing it cooked: Because loods cook so quickly in a microwave oven, it is necessary to test lood trequently. Some foods are left in the microwave until completely cooked, but most foods, including meats and poultry. are removed trom the oven while still slightly undercooked and allowed to finish cooking during standing time, The internal temperature of toods will rise between 5°F (3°C) and 15°F lS“C) during standingtime. Standing time: Foods are often allowed to stand lor 3 to to minutes after being removed lrom the microwave oven. Usually the foods are covered during standing time to retain heat unless they are supposed to be dry in texture (some cakes and biscuits, lor examplei Standing allows loads to finish cooking and also helps llavors to blend and develop. HOW FOOD CHARACTERISTICS AFFECT MICROWAVE COOKING Density ol foods: Light, porous food like cakes and breads cook more quickly than heavy. dense foods such as roasts and casseroles. You must take care when microwaving porous loods that the outer edges do not become dry and brittle, Height of foods: The upper portion ol tall loods, particularly roasts, will cook more quickly than the lower portion. Therelore, it is wise to turn tall loods during cooking, sometimes several times. Moisture content oi toads: Since the heat generated lrom microwaves tends to evaporate moisture, relatively dry toods such as roasts and some vegetables should either be sprinkled with water prior to cooking or covered to retain moisture Bone and let content of loads: Bones conduct heat and lat cooks more quickly than meat. Therefore, care must be taken when cooking bony or latly cuts of meat that the meats do not cook unevenly and do not become overcooked. to revis- fis %il‘ ltiZStAllillvl4115 fie OTHER HELPFUL INFORMATION Shape of loads: Microwaves penetrate only about 1 inch (2.5mm) into loads; the interior portion of thick toods is cooked as the heat generated on the outside travels inward. In other words. only the outer edge at any load is actually cooked by microwave energy; the rest is cooked by convection. It toilows then that the worst possible shape for a tood that is to be microwaved is a thick cube, The corners will burn long belore the center is even warm. Round, thin. and ring shaped loods cook most successfully in the microwave: Quantity of foods: The number ol microwaves in your oven remains constant regardless ct how much iood is being cooked. Therefore. the more lood you place in the oven, the longer the cooking time. Remember to decrease cooking limes by at least one-third when halving a recipe. COOKING NSILS MlCROWAVE-SAFE UTENSILS Never use metal or metal-trimmed utensils in your mlcrowave oven: Microwaves cannot penetrate metal. They will bounce ott any metal obiect in the oven and cause arcing, an alarming phenomenon that resembles lightning. Most heat-resistant non-metallic cooking utensils are safe for use in your microwave oven. However, some may contain materials that render them unsuitable as microwave cookware. Il you have any doubts about a particular utensil, there is a simple way to find out it it can be used in your microwave oven. Testing utensils for microwave use: Place the utensil in question next to a glass bowl titled with water in the microwave oven: Microwave at power HIGH lor 1 minute. It the water heats up but the utensil remains cool to the touch. the utensil is microwave—sale. However. it the water does not change temperature but the utensil becomes warm, microwaves are being absorbed by the utensil and it is not sale tor use in the microwave oven. You probably have many items on hand in your kitchen that can be used as cooking equipment in your microwave oven. Just read through the tollowing checklist. 1. Dinner plates: Many kinds ot dinner-ware are microwave—sate, It in doubt consult the manutacturer‘s literature or pertorm the microwave test, above. 2: Glassware: Glassware that is heat—resistant is microwave—sate. This includes all brands ol oven- temperecl glass cookware. However, do not use delicate glassware, such as tumbler or wine glasses, as these might shatter as the load warms. 3. Paper: Paper plates and containers are convenient and sale to use in your microwave even, provided the cooking time is short and foods to be cooked are low in lat and moisture. Paper towels are also very usetul tor wrapping loads and Ior lining baking trays in which greasy toods. such as bacon. are cooked. In general, avoid colored paper products as the color may run, 4. Plastic storage containers: These can be used to hold loads that are to be quickly reheated, However, they should not be used to hold toods that will need considerable time in the oven as hot ioods will eventually warp or melt plastic containers. 5. Plastic cooking bags: These are microwaves sale provided they are specially made tor cooking. However, be sure to make a slit in the bag so that steam can escape. Never use ordinary plastic bags tor cooking in your microwave oven. as they will melt and rupture. 5. Plastic microwave cookware: A variety of shapes and sizes 01 microwave cookware is available. For the most part, you can probably cook with items you already have on hand rather than investing in new kitchen equipment. 7. Pottery, stoneware, and ceramic: Containers made ot these materials are usually line for use in your microwave oven. but they should be tested to be sure.
