Important things to remember to get the BEST COOKING RESULTS.
l
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.
l
Stir, turn or rearrange the food about halfway through the cooking time for most even doneness
with all recipes.
l
If a glass cover is not available, use waxpaper, paper towels or Saran
Wrap. Turn back a corner
to vent steam during cooking.
