ALWAYS cook food for the minimum recommended cooking time. If necessary, add time in one or
two minute periods, then check for doneness to avoid overcooking the food.

When using mlcrowave recipes from other cookbooks or sources, slightly longer cooking times will
be needed for those recipes calling for “HIGH” or ‘FULL” cook power For example, add 1 to 2 minutes
to a 5 minute cooking time Cooking times at settings less than “HIGH” (such as “MEDIUM”] would
not need any adjustment
