Question
Is it possible to pop popcorn in
a Microwave Oven? (Cont.)
Why do baked apples
sometimes burst during
cooking?
Why do baked potatoes
sometimes burn during
cooking?
Why is additional time
required for cooking food
stored in the refrigerator?
Answer
Follow exact directions given by
each manufacturer for its popcorn
popping product and do not leave
the Microwave Oven unattended
while the corn is being popped. If
corn fails to pop after the
suggested time, discontinue
cooking. Overcooking could result
in an Microwave Oven fire.
• CAUTION: Never use a brown
paper bag for popping corn or
attempt to pop leftover kernels. Do
not pop prepackaged commercial
microwavepopcorn directly on the
Glass Turntable, place the popcorn
bag on a plate.
• The peel has not been removed from
the top half of each apple to allow for
expansion of the interior of the apple
during cooking. As in conventional
cooking methods, the interior of the
apple expands during the cooking
process.
• If the cooking time is too long, fire
could result. At the end of the
recommended cooking time,
potatoes should be slightly firm.
• CAUTION: Do not overcook.
• As in conventional cooking, the initial
temperature of food affects total
cooking time. You need more time to
cook food taken out of a refrigerator
than for food at room temperature.
