Always keep the oven clean – avoid spill-overs
and do not forget to clean under the turntable and
the inside of the door.
It is preferable to use round or oval casseroles
with a lid when cooking in your microwave oven.
Do not use metal or metal decorated casserole
dishes. Certain plastic materials can melt and be
warped by hot food.
Cover the food when cooking. Use a glass lid,
a plate or grease proof paper.
Pastry, bread and the like can be defrosted directly
in a bread basket or on a paper towel.
If frozen food is heated in its packaging, the pack-
aging should be opened. Packaging containing
metal or metal decoration must not be used un-
less specifically recommended for use in the
microwave. Remove metal clips and wire ties.
Smaller pieces of aluminium foil can be used
to cover parts that easily overcook such as
chicken legs.
Food with peel or skin should be pierced with
a fork – e.g. potatoes and sausages. Do not boil
eggs in the microwave oven as they can explode.
Put large, thick pieces close to the edge of the
casserole and try to cut the food into even-sized
pieces. Always place the food in the centre of the
oven.
The food will be more evenly cooked if you stir or
turn it regularly.
Always set a shorter cooking time than indicated
in your recipe to avoid overcooking.The larger the
amount of food the longer it takes.
Use little or no water for vegetables.
Use less salt and spices than for conventional
cooking.
Season afterwards.
Allow a few minutes ‘standing time' after the oven
has switched off to ensure complete and even
cooking results.
Always ensure food is piping hot throughout before
serving.
Use gloves when taking dishes and food from the
oven.
