Microwave cooking at lower cook powers
For best results, some recipes call for lower Cook Powers. The lower the Cook Power, the slower the
cooking. Each Number Pad also stands for a different percentage of Cook Power. Many recipes in your
CONVECTION MICRO MENUS” Cookbook tell you, by number, which Cook Power to use. Recipes in
other books and magazines may tell you by name (HI, MED, LO, etc.) or percentage (IO%, 50%, 80%, etc.).
The following chart gives the percentage of Cook Power each Number Pad stands for, and Cook
Power name usually used.
