Meat next to the ties of bones may overcook while most positioned under a large bone, such as a ham bone. may be undercooked. Large amounts of Val absorb microwave energy and the meat next to these areas may overeook Density Porous, airy loads such as breads, cakes or rolls take less time to cook than heavy. deme foods such as potatoes and roasts. When reheating donuts or other toads with diilerent centers be very careful. Certain foods have centers made with sugar. water or let and these centers attract microwaves (For ex., lelly donuts). When a [ally donut is heated. the jelly can become extremely hot while the exteri- or remains warm to the touch. This could result in a burn K the food is not allowed to cool properly in the center. Quantity Two potatoes take longer to cook then one potato. As the quantity of the toad increases so does the cooking time. When cooking small amounts of iood such as one or two potatoes. do not leave wen unattended. The moisture con- tent in the food may decrease and a fire could resutt, Shape Unitorm sizes heat more evenly. The thin end oi a drumstick will cook more quickty than the meaty end. To compensate lor irregular shapes. place thin parts toward the center oi the dish and thick pieces toward the edge. Size Thin pieces cook more quickly than thick pieces. Starting Temperature Foods that are room temperature take less time to cook than it they are chilled or relrigereted orlrozen. .14_ Pierclng Foods with skins or merrbranes must be pierced, scored or have a strip oi skin peeled beiore cooking to allow steam to escape. Pierce whole egg yolks and whites. clams, oysters, chicken livers, whole potatoes and whole vegetables. Whole apples or new potatoes should have a 1v'nch strip at skin peeled before cooking. Score sausage and irankiurters. Browning Foods will not have the same brown appearance as con- ventionally cooked toads or these leads which are cooked utilizing a browning ieature. Meets and poultry may be coated with browning sauce. Worcestershire sauce, barbe- cue sauce or shake-on browning sauce. To use. combine browning sauce whh melted butter or margarine; brush on before cooking. For quick breads or muttins, brown sugar can be used in the recipe in place at granulated sugar. or the surface can be sprinkled with dark spices before baking. Spacing Individual loads, such as baked potatoes, cupcakes and appetizers. will cook more evenly it placed in the oven equal distances apart. When possible, arrange loads in a circular pattern. Covering As with conventional cooking, moisture evaporates during microwave cooking. Casserole lids or plastic wrap are used for a tighter seal, When using plastic wrap, vent the plastic wrap by iolding beck part of the plastic wrap from the edge ol the dish to allow steam to escape. Loosen or remove plastic wrap as recipe directs lor stand time. When removing plastic wrap covers, as well as any glass lids, be careful to remove them away lrom you to avoid steam burns. Various degrees oi moisture retention are also obtained by using wax paper or paper towels. However, unless specified, a recipe is cooked covered. .15. Shielding Thin areas ol meat and poultry cook more quickly than meaty portions. To prevent overcooking. these thin areas can be shield- ed with str'ps of aluminumfoi. Wooden toothpicls may be used to hold the loil in place. Timing A range in cooking time is given in each recin The time range compensates tor the uncontrollable d‘merences in lood shapes, start'ng terrperature and regional preferences. Always cook lood tor the minin cooking time given in a recipe and cheek tor doneness lithe food is undercooked, continue cooking it is easi- er to add time to an undercooked product. Once the food is oven cooked, nothing can be done. Stirring Stirring is usually necessary during microwave cooking. We have noted when stirring is helplul, using the words once, twice, frequently or occasionally to describe the amount at stirring necessary. Always bring the cooked outside edges toward the center and the less cooked center portions toward the outside at the dish. Rearranging Rearrange small "name such as chicken pieces. shrimp. hamburger patties or pork chops. Rearrange pieces from the edge to the center and pieces lrom the oenter to the edge at the dish. Turning It is not possible to stir some loods to redistribute the beat. At times, microwave energy will concentrate in one area of a ioodTo hep insure even cooking, these loods need to be turned.Turn over large loads, such as roasts or turkeys. halfway through cooking. Stand 11me Most toads will continue to cook by conduction alter the microwave oven is turned off. In meat cookery, the internal temperature will rise S'F to 15°F (3°C to 8°C). it allowed to stand, tented with foil, for 10 to 15 minutes. Casseroles and vogatab need a shorter amount of standing time, but this standing time Is necesary to allow ioods to complete cooking to the center without overcooking on the edges. Testing for Doneness The same tests lor doneness used in conventional cooking rmy be used for rniorowale cooking. Meat is done when fork-tender or eplts at tbers. Chicken is done when juices are clear yellow and dunetick moves freely. Fish is done Mien it flakes and is opaque. Cake is done when e toothpidr or cake tester is inserted and comes out clean, Candy is done when it reaches the proper tennereture for each stage of crystalizetion. All these things are normal: The wen causes Some recite endTV interference might occur when you cook with the Interference with myTV. The oven light dims. microwave oven.ThIs Interference is similar to the interference caused Ivy small appliances such as mixers. vacuums, blow dryers, etc.. It does not indicate a problem with your oven. When cooking with a power other than P100 (HIGH), the oven must cycle to obtain the lower power levele.The oven light will rim and clicking noises can be heard when the oven cycles. Steam accumulates on the oven door and warm air comes from the oven vents. During cooking, steam and warm air are given off from the toad. Most of the steam and warm air are removed from the oven by the air which circulates In the oven cavity. However. some steam will condense on cooler euriecee such as the oven door. This Is normal. I accidentally ran my microwave even without any food In it. Running the oven empty tor a short time will not damage the oven.
