Microwave terms
Term |
Definition |
Arcing |
Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is caused by: |
|
Ŷ the metal shelf being installed incorrectly and touching the microwave walls. |
|
Ŷ metal or foil touching the side of the oven. |
|
Ŷ foil that is not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennas). |
|
Ŷ metal such as twist-ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed dishes. |
|
Ŷ recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces. |
|
Ŷ the turntable ring support being installed incorrectly. |
|
|
Covering |
Covers hold in moisture, allow for more even heating and reduce cooking time. Venting plastic wrap or |
|
covering with wax paper allows excess steam to escape. |
|
|
Shielding |
In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked foods to prevent over-browning. When microwaving, |
|
you use small strips of foil to shield thin parts, such as the tips of wings and legs on poultry, which would |
|
cook before larger parts. |
Standing Time When you cook with regular ovens, foods such as roasts or cakes are allowed to stand to finish cooking or to set. Standing time is especially important in microwave cooking. Note that a microwaved cake is not placed on a cooling rack.
Venting |
After covering a dish with plastic wrap, you vent the plastic wrap by turning back one corner so excess |
|
steam can escape. |

Baking and Roasting Features
Baking or roasting uses a heating element to raise the temperature of the air inside the oven.
$Q\ RYHQ WHPSHUDWXUH IURP ) WR ) PD\ EH VHW $ IDQ JHQWO\ FLUFXODWHV WKLV KHDWHG 
air throughout the oven, over and around the food, producing golden brown exteriors and 
rich, moist interiors. This circulation of heated air is called convection. 
Because the heated air is kept constantly moving, not permitting a layer of cooler air to develop around the food, some foods cook faster than in regular oven cooking.

Cookware Tips
Convection Bake or Roast
Metal Pans are recommended for all types of baked products, but especially where browning is important. Dark or dull finish metal pans are best for breads and pies because they absorb heat and produce crisper crust.
Shiny aluminum pans are better for cakes, cookies or muffins because they reflect heat and help produce a light tender crust.
Glass or Glass-Ceramic casserole or baking dishes are best suited for egg and cheese recipes due to the cleanability of glass.
Combination Fast Bake
Glass or Glass-Ceramic baking containers are recommended. Be sure not to use items with metal trim as it may cause arcing (sparking) with oven wall or oven shelf. This can damage the cookware, the shelf or the oven.
