water—set the measuring cup either in or next to the dish. Microwave 1 minute at high. If the dish heats, it should not be used for microwaving. If the dish remains cool and only the water in the cup heats, then the dish is microwave-safe.

Variable power levels add flexibility to your microwave cooking.

The

power levels on your microwave oven can be compared to the surface units on a range. HIGH (Power Level 10) 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

70Y0

of the time. Power Level 3 is

energy

3090

of the time.

A high setting (10) will cook faster but may need additional attention such as frequent stirring, rotating or turning over. Most of your cooking will be done on HIGH (Power Level 10). A lower setting will cook more evenly and with less attention given to stirring

or rotating the food. Some foods may have better flavor, texture or appearance if one of the lower

settings is used. You may wish to use a lower power level when cooking foods that have a tendency to

boil over, such as scalloped potatoes.

Rest periods (when the microwave energy cycles

offi

give time for the food to “equalize” or transfer heat to the inside of the food. An example of this is shown with Power Level 3—the defrost cycle. If microwave energy did not cycle off, the outside of the food would cook before the inside was defrosted.

Here are some examples of uses for various power levels:

POWER LEVEL BEST USES
