Microwave Terms

Arci.o Arcing is the microwave term tbr sparks in the oven. Arcing is

caused by:

o the metal shelf being installed incorrectly and touching the

n/icrow, lve walls.

o metal or toil touching the side of the oxen.

ico,,e i.o¸ L

i i i

iii

vo"ti,o

o toil that is not molded to tood (upturned edges act like

an[cnn_ls).

o metal such as twist ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed dishes.

o recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces.

Covers hold in moisture, allow tot more even heating and reduce
cooking time. Venting plastic wrap or covering with wax paper
allows excess steam to escape.

In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked toods to
prevent over-browning. When microwaving, you use small strips
of %il to shield thin parts, such as tile tips of wings and legs on
pouhry, which would cook betore larger parts.

¥\hen you cook with regular ovens, toods such as roasts or cakes
are allowed to stand to finish cooking or to set. Standing time is
especially important in microwave cooking. Nora that a microwaved
cake is not placed on a cooling rack.

At_ter covering a dish with plastic wrap, you vent tile plastic wrap by

turning back one corner so excess stcan/c}ln escape.

cooking. The power levels

on the microwave oven can
be compared to the

surface units on a range.
High (power level ]0) or
full power is the fastest way
to cook and gives you
100% power. Each power
level gives you microwave
energy a certain percent of

the time. Power level 7 is
microwave energy 70% of

the time. Power level 3 is

A high setting (l 0) will

Microwave Terms

Arci.o Arcing is the microwave term tbr sparks in the oven. Arcing is

caused by:

o the metal shelf being installed incorrectly and touching the

n/icrow, lve walls.

o metal or toil touching the side of the oxen.

ico,,e i.o¸ L

i i i

iii

vo"ti,o

o toil that is not molded to tood (upturned edges act like

an[cnn_ls).

o metal such as twist ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed dishes.

o recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces.

Covers hold in moisture, allow tot more even heating and reduce
cooking time. Venting plastic wrap or covering with wax paper
allows excess steam to escape.

In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked toods to
prevent over-browning. When microwaving, you use small strips
of %il to shield thin parts, such as tile tips of wings and legs on
pouhry, which would cook betore larger parts.

¥\hen you cook with regular ovens, toods such as roasts or cakes
are allowed to stand to finish cooking or to set. Standing time is
especially important in microwave cooking. Nora that a microwaved
cake is not placed on a cooling rack.

At_ter covering a dish with plastic wrap, you vent tile plastic wrap by

turning back one corner so excess stcan/c}ln escape.
