Before starting

Basic principles of microwave cookery

■ Think carefully about how to arrange the food
■ The thickest parts should be at the edges.
■ Pay attention to the cooking time. Select the
shortest possible specifi ed cooking time and
increase as required. Food that is cooked for
too long can begin to smoke or catch fi re.
■ Cover the food with a lid that is suitable for micro-
wave cookery during cooking. The lid prevents
splashing and helps to cook the food evenly.
■ While cooking, turn the food in the microwave
once so that items such as chicken or hamburgers
cook more quickly.
■ Turn large food items such as joints of meat at
least once.
■ Completely re-arrange foods such as meatballs
after half of the cooking time. Turn them and move
the meatballs from the middle of the cookware to
the edge.

Suitable cookware

■ The ideal material for a microwave oven is
microwave-permeable, allowing the energy to
pass through the container to heat the food.
Microwaves cannot pass through metal. For this
reason metal containers and cookware should
not be used.
■ Do not use products made from recycled paper
when using the microwave for heating. These
may contain minute fragments of metal, which
can generate sparks and/or fi res.
■ We recommend the use of round/oval cookware
rather than square or oblong containers, since
food in corner areas tends to overcook.
