MICROWAVE OVEN USE

A magnetron in the microwave oven produces microwaves which

reflect off the metal floor, walls and ceiling and pass through the

turntable and appropriate cookware to the food. Microwaves are

attracted to and absorbed by fat, sugar and water molecules in

the food, causing them to move, producing friction and heat

which cooks the food.

■ To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not lean on or

allow children to swing on the microwave oven door.

■ To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not operate

microwave oven when it is empty.

■ Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in

microwave oven.

■ Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, paper, including

brown paper bags and newspaper, should not be dried in

microwave oven.

■ Paraffin wax will not melt in the microwave oven because it

does not absorb microwaves.

■ Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing containers from

microwave oven.

■ Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended

cook time, potatoes should be slightly firm. Let potatoes

stand for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.

■ Do not cook or reheat whole eggs inside the shell. Steam

buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst, requiring

significant cleanup of microwave oven cavity. Cover poached

eggs and allow a standing time.

Food Characteristics

When microwave cooking, the amount, size and shape, starting

temperature, composition and density of the food affect cooking

results.

Amount of Food

The more food heated at once, the longer the cook time needed.

Check for doneness and add small increments of time if

necessary.

Size and Shape

Smaller pieces of food will cook more quickly than larger pieces,

and uniformly shaped foods cook more evenly than irregularly

shaped food.

Starting Temperature

Room temperature foods will heat faster than refrigerated foods,

and refrigerated foods will heat faster than frozen foods.

Composition and Density

Foods high in fat and sugar will reach a higher temperature, and

will heat faster than other foods. Heavy, dense foods, such as

meat and potatoes, require a longer cook time than the same size

of a light, porous food, such as cake.

Cooking Guidelines

Covering

Covering food helps retain moisture, shorten cook time and

reduce spattering. Use the lid supplied with cookware. If a lid is

not available, wax paper, paper towels or plastic wrap approved

for microwave ovens may be used. Plastic wrap should be turned

back at one corner to provide an opening to vent steam.

Condensation on the door and cavity surfaces is normal during

heavy cooking.

Stirring and Turning

Stirring and turning redistribute heat evenly to avoid overcooking

the outer edges of food. Stir from outside to center. If possible,

turn food over from bottom to top.

Arranging

If heating irregularly shaped or different sized foods, arrange the

thinner parts and smaller sized items toward the center. If

cooking several items of the same size and shape, place them in

a ring pattern, leaving the center of the ring empty.

Piercing

Before heating, use a fork or small knife to pierce or prick foods

that have a skin or membrane, such as potatoes, egg yolks,

chicken livers, hot dogs, and sausage. Prick in several places to

allow steam to vent.

Shielding

Use small, flat pieces of aluminum foil to shield the thin pieces of

irregularly shaped foods, bones and foods such as chicken

wings, leg tips and fish tail. See “Aluminum Foil and Metal” first.

Standing Time

Food will continue to cook by the natural conduction of heat even

after the microwave cooking cycle ends. The length of standing

time depends on the volume and density of the food.
