ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING

Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas

towards outside of dish.

Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as

needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

·Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or

cookbook for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.

·Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil

any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.

·Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or

twice during cooking, if possible.

Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and

hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be

turned over at least once.

·Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway

through cooking both from top to bottom and from the center of the dish to the outside.

·Add standing time. Remove food from oven and

stir, if possible. Cover for standing time that allows the food to finish cooking without overcooking.

·Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating

that cooking temperatures have been reached. Doneness signs include:

-Food steams throughout, not just at edge.

-Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.

-Poultry thigh joins move easily.

-Meat and poultry show no pinkness.

-Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS

It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces already in your kitchen can be used successfully in your new microwave oven. Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls during cooking.

Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and reheating

·glass ceramic

·heat-resistant glass

·microwave-safe plastics

·paper plates

·microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain

·browning dish

These items can be used for short time reheating of foods that have little fat or sugar in them:·wood, straw, wicker DO NOT USE

·metal pans and bake ware

·dishes with metallic trim

·non-heat-resistant glass

·non-microwave-safe plastic

·recycled paper bags

·food storage bags

·metal twist-ties

Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be used.

The following coverings are ideal:

·Paper towels are good for covering foods for

reheating and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.

· Wax paper can be used for cooking and

reheating.

· Plastic wrap that is specially marked for

microwave use can be used for cooking and reheating. DO NOT allow plastic wrap to touch food. Vent so steam can escape.

·Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice

because heat is kept near the food to hasten cooking.

·Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or

foods that need tenderizing. DO NOT use metal twist ties. Remember to slit bag so steam can escape.

How to use aluminum foil in your microwave oven:

Page 7

· Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on the food can be used to shield areas that are either defrosting or cooking too quickly.

· Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface of the oven.

ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories available for purchase. Evaluate

carefully before you purchase so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in determining correct doneness and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures. Galanz is not responsible for any damage to the oven when accessories are used.

ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE

Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave oven with a supervising person very near to them. Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person should be in the same room. The children must be able to reach the oven comfortably; if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool. At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the oven door.

Wipe the window on both sides with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped frequently with a damp cloth. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the door surface.

Touch Control Panel

Care should be taken in cleaning the touch control panel. If the control panel becomes soiled, open the oven door before cleaning. Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened slightly with water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use any sort of chemical cleaners. Close door and touch STOP/CLEAR.

Interior

Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth and warm water. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use baking soda or a mild soap; rinse thoroughly with hot water.
