COOKING TiPS
Meat
1. No special techniques are required. Meat should be
prepared as with conventional cooking. Season if desired.
Always thoroughly defrost meat before cooking.
2. Place the meat on a microwave roasting rack or
microwave-proof plate and place on the turntable.
3. Cook according to the Meat Cooking Table (below).
Use the longer time for large cuts of meats and the shorter
time for small cuts of meats. For thicker chops, use the longer
time.
4. Turn the meat once halfway through the cooking time.
5. Let stand for 5-10 minutes in oven after cooking.
The standing time is very important as it completes the
cooking process.
6. Make sure meat, especially pork, is thoroughly cooked
before eating.

Poultry
1. No special techniques are required. Poultry should be
prepared as with conventional cooking. Season if desired.
2. Poultry should be thoroughly defrosted. Remove giblets and
any metal clamps.
3. Prick the skin and brush lightly with vegetable oil unless the
poultry is self-basting.
4. All poultry should be placed on a microwave roasting rack
or a microwave-proof plate and placed on the turntable.
5. Cook according to the instructions in the Poultry Cooking
Table below. Turn over halfway through the cooking time.
Because of its shape, poultry has a tendency to cook
unevenly, especially in very bony parts. Turning during
roasting helps to cook these areas evenly.
6. Let stand for 5-10 minutes in oven after cooking before
carving. The standing time is very important, as it completes
the cooking process.
7. Make sure poultry is thoroughly cooked before eating.
Whole poultry is completely cooked when the juices run clear
from the inside thigh when it is pierced with a sharp knife.
Poultry pieces should be pierced with a sharp knife through
the thickest part to ensure that the juices are clear and the
flesh is firm.
