GETTING THE BEST
RESULTS FROM YOUR
MICROWAVE OVEN
Keep an eye on things. The lnstructtons in
this book have been formulated with great
cars. but your success in preparing them
depends. of course. on how much attention you
pay to the food as it cooks Always watch your
food while it cooks. Your microwave oven is
Equipped with a lightthat turns on automaticaily
when the oven is in operation so that you can
see inside and check the progress ol your moipu.
Directions given in recipes to eievate. stir. and
the iike shouso he thought ol as the minimum
stops recommended. If the lood seems to he
cooking unevenly, simply make the necessary
adjustments you think appropriate to correol the
problem.
Factors affecting cooking limes. Many factors
arleot cooking times. The temperature of
ingredients used in a recipe makes a big
difference in cooking times. For example, a cake
made with ico'coid butter. milk, and eggs tviii
take considerably ionger to bake than one made
with ingredients that are at room temperature.
All at the recipes in lhrs book give a range to!
cooking times In general. you w:|i find that the
food remains under-conned at the lower end at
the lime range, and you may sometimes want to
cook your food beyond the maximum time given,
accordth to porsonai preierence, The governing
philosophy of this book is that it is best for a
recipe to he conservative in giving cooking times,
While undercooked food may always be cooked
a bit more, overcooked food is ruined lor good.
Some oi the zeoipes, particulariy those tor bread.
cakes. and custard, recommend that food be
removcd lrorn the oven when they are siightly
undercooked This is not a mistake. When
ailowed to stand, usualtv covered. these foods
wiil contintio to cook outside oi the oven as the
heat trappod within the outer portions or the
foods graduatly travels inward. It the loads are
ieft in the Oven uriEii they are cooked aii the way
through, the outer portions wiii become
overcooked or even burnt,
As you gain experience in using your microwave
oven, you wiii become increasingly skillfui in
estimating ooth cooking ono standing times tor
various foods.
"OTHER'HELPFUL' tNFORMATiON‘
SPECIAL TECHNIQUES IN
MICROWAVE COOKING
Browning: Meals and poultry that are cooked
Fiiteen minutes or longer will brown lightly in their
own lat, Foods that are cooked for a shorter period
or time may be brushed With a brownrng sauce to
achieve an appetizing color, The most commonly
used browning sauces are Worcestershire sauce
soy sauce, and barbecue sauce. Since relatively
small. amounts of browning sauces are added to
loads. the original flavor of recipes IS not altered,
Covering: A cover traps heat and steam and
causes locd to cook more quickly. You may either
use a lid or microwave cling—film with a corner
lclded pack to prevent splitting.
Covering with waxed paper: Waxed paper
ettectivety prevents spattering and helps lood
retain some heat. Since it makes a looser Dover
than a lid or cIll’lg—Illli'l. it allows the food to dry out
slightly,
Wrapping in waxed paper or paper towel:
Sandwtches and many other foods containing
preoaked mead should he wrapped prior to
microwavtng to prevent drying out
Arranging and spacing: Individual {pods such as
baked Potatoes, small cakes, and hors d'oeuvres
will heat more evenly if placed tn the oven and
equal dislance apart, preferably in a clrputar
yettem ever slack loads on top of one another.
Stirring is one at the most important of all
microwaving techniques. ln conventional cocking.
loads are stirred to; the purpose 0: blending
Microwaved toods, however, are stirred in order to
spread and redistribute heat, Always stir lrom the
outside towards the center as the outside food
heats first
Turning over: Large. tall foods such as roasts and
whole chlckens 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 oi
foods, it makes sense to place thicker portions or
meat. poultry and lish to the outer edge 0! the
baking dish. This way. thicker portions will receive
the most microwave energy and the loads will cook
evenly.
Elevating: Thick or dense foods are often elevated
so that microwaves can be absorbed by the
underside and center oi 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 foods
include both yolks and whites of eggs, clams and
oysters, and many whole vegetables and lrutts.
Testing if cooked: Because foods cook so quickly
in a microwave oven, it is necessary to test Food
lroquently. Some foods are led in the microwave
isnht completely cooked. tout most foods. including
meats and poultry, are removed from the oven
while sttll slightly undercooked and atlowed to
Iin‘sh cooking during standing tame. The internal
temperature of foods tviil nse oetvveen 5"F (TC)
and 15°F (8°C) during standing time.
Standing time: Foods are often allowed to stand
tor S to to minutes after being removed trorn the
microwave oven. Usually the foods are covered
dunno standing time to retain heat unless they are
supposed to be dry in texture [some cakes and
biscuits. tor example}. Standing allows loods to
hmsh cooking and also helps tlavcrs to blend and
develop.
HOW FOOD CHARACTERISTICS
AFFECT MICROWAVE COOKING
Density of loads: Light, porous food like cakes
and breads cook more quickly than heavy, dense
toods such as masts and casseroles, You must
take care when microwawng porous foods that the
outer edges do not become dry and brittle.
Height of foods: The upper portion 0! tall lpcds.
particularly roasts, will cook more quickly than the
lower portion. Theretore. it is wise to turn tall foods
during cooking, sometimes several times.
Moisture content of foods: Since the heat
generated from microwaves tends to evaporate
moisture. relatively dry foods such as roasts and
some vegetables should either he sprinkled with
water prior to cooking orcovered to retain moisture.
Bone and tat content of foods: Bones conduct
heal and tat cooks more quickly than meat.
Theretore. care must be taken when cooking bony
or Iatty cuts oi meat that the meats do not cook
unevenly and do not become overcooked.
shape at foods: Micron-raves penetrate only about
1 inch [2.5mm inlo foods: the interior portion of
thick foods is cooked as the heat generated on the
outside travels inward. In other words. only the
outer edge oi any load is actually cooked by
microwave energl‘: the rest is cooked by
convectton. It iotlows then that the worst posslhle
shape for a load that is to be microwaved is a thlck
cube. The corners will burn long oetore the center
ls even warm. Hound, thin, and ring shaped foods
cook more! successfully in the microwave.
MlCROWAVE-SAFE UTENSILS
Never use metal or metal-trimmed utensils in
your microwave oven: Microwaves cannot
penetrate rnctal', They will bounce oft any metat
omect tn the oven and cause arcing, an alarming
phenomenon that resembles lightning.
Most heat—resistant non-metallic cooking utensils
are safe tor use in your microwave oven. However,
some mayconlatn materials that renderthern
unsuitable as rnlcrowave cookware, ll you have
any doubts about a particular utensil, there is a
simple way to find out it it can he used ln your
microwave oven.
Testing utensils tor microwave use; Place the
utensil lrl question next to a glass bowl tllled with
water in the microwave oven. Mlcrowave a! power
HIGH for 1 minute. l! the water heats up but the
utensll remains cool to the touch. the utensll ls
mlcrowaversato. However, it the water does not
change temperature but the utenstl becomes
wan-n. microwaves are being absorbed by the
utensil and it is not sate lor use In the microwave
oven. You probably hava many items on hand in
your kitchen that can be used as cooking
equipment in your microwave oven Just read
through the followth checklist.
1, Dinner plates: Many kinds of dinner-t'tare are
microwavefsale. If in doubt consult the
manulacturers Ilterature or pertorm lho microwave
test, above.
2. Glassware: Glassware that is heal-resistant is
microwave-safe. This includes all brands of ovens _
tempered glass cookware. However, do not use
delicate glassware, such as tumbler or wtne
gtasses, as these might shatter as the food warms.
OTHER HELPFUL INFORMATION
Quantity cl lands: The number of microwaves in
your oven remains constant regardless of how
much iood is helng cocks at, Therefore the more
food you plaoe in the oven. the longer the cooking
time, Remember to decrease cooking times by at
toast one-third when halving a reclpe.
3A Paper: Paper plates and containers are
convenient and sate to new in your microwave
oven, provided the cooking time is short and
mode to be cooked are low in tat and moisture.
Paper tot-lets are also very uselul for wrapping
foods and tor lining baking trays ll'l which greasy
foods. such as bacon, are cooked. In general.
avoid colored paper products as the color may run.
4. Plastic storage containers: Those Mn be used
to hold foods that are to be quickly reheated.
However. they should not be used to hold foods
that wlll need considerable time in the oven as hot
lands will eventually warp or melt plastic
containers.
5. Plastic cooking bags: These are microwave-
sale provided they are specially msol tor cooking,
However. be sure to make a stir in the bag so
that steam can escape. Never use ordinary plastic
bags torcooking in your rnlcrowave oven. as they
wrll melt and rupture.
6. Plastic microwave cookware: A vaner 0!
shapes and sizes 01 microwave cookware is
available. For the most part. you can probably cook
With items you already have on hand ralherthan
