Questiom and Answers
Q. I set my oven for the time called for in the recipe, but at the end of the time allowed, my food wasn’t done. What happened?
A.
Since house power varies due to time or location most recipes give you a time range to prevent overcooking. Set the oven for minimum time, test the food for doneness, and cook your food a little longer, if necessary.
Q.
What happens if I accidentally operate the microwave oven without food in it?
A.
Accidental use for short periods of time does not damage the magnetron but it is not recommended.
Q.
Can I interrupt the cooking
function to check the food? A. Yes.

Convenience Food Guide
1. Most convenience foods can be reheated by microwave only, since they are already cooked. Always use microwave-safe cookware (glass or plastic). For foods needing browning or crisping, conventional baking is recommended.
2. Remove food from foil containers over 3/4-inch high and place in microwave-safe dish.

Fresh Vegetables
1. Weights given for fresh vegetables are purchase weights, before peeling, trimming, etc.
2. Pierce skins of vegetables to be heated whole and unpeeled (i.e. potatoes, squash, eggplant). This allows steam to escape and prevents bursting or popping.
3. Add only 2 to 3 tablespoons of water per pound. Rinsing vegetables before cooking is usually sufficient. Salt just before serving.
4. Heat, covered, in casserole dish; stirring once. Let stand covered 5 minutes unless otherwise specified.
Frozen
Vegehbles
1. Frozen vegetables maybe heated in pouch, package or freezer container. Puncture pouch before heating and flex halfway through cooking to distribute heat.
2.
Place frozen vegetables in covered casserole dish. Add 2 tablespoons of water unless otherwise indicated in guide.
3. Stir once during cooking. Salt vegetables after cooking or put salt in the casserole with the water before adding vegetables.

Techniques for Microwaving
In both conventional and microwave cooking, covers hold in moisture and speed heating. Conventionally, partial covering allows excess steam to escape. Venting plastic wrap or covering with wax paper serves the same purpose when microwaving.
Arranging in Oven.
In conventional baking, you position foods, such as tomatoes or potatoes, so that hot air can flow around them. When microwaving, you arrange foods in a ring, so that all sides are exposed to microwave energy.
Stirring.
the bottom to help them heat
In range-top cooking, you stir foods up from
evedy.
When microwaving, you stir cooked portions from the outside to the center. Foods which require constant stirring conventionally will need only occasional stirring.
Turning Over.
In range-top cooking you turn over foods such as hamburgers, so both sides can directly contact hot pan. When microwaving, turning is often needed when cooking foods such as frozen hamburgers.
Standing Time.
In conventional cooking, foods such as roasts or cakes are allowed to stand to finish cooking or set. Standing time is especially important in microwave cooking. A microwaved cake is not
placed on a cooling rack.
Shielding.
breasts or baked foods to prevent
In a conventional oven you shield chicken
overbrowning. When
microwaving, you may 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.
Pierce Foods to Release Pressure.
Steam builds up pressure in foods which are tightly covered by a skin or membrane. Pierce potatoes (as you do conventionally),
e=
yolks and chicken livers to prevent bursting.
Ro@ting.
Occasionally, repositioning a dish in the oven helps food cook evenly. To rotate 1/2 turn, turn the dish until the side which was to the back of the oven is to the front. To rotate 1/4 turn, turn the dish until the side which was to the back of the oven is to the side.
