ENGLISH

heating/cooking tiPS

The Following Items are NOT RECOMMEND for use in the Microwave

Oven:

Glass jars and bottles — Regular glass is too thin to be used in a

microwave. It can shatter and cause damage and injury.

Paper bags — Paper and paper bags are a re hazard, except for

popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use.

Styrofoam plates and cups — Styrofoam can melt and leave an unhealthy

residue on the food.

Plastic storage and food containers — Containers not specically

designed and intended for microwaves, such as margarine tubs, can melt

in the microwave.

Metal utensils — Metal can damage your oven. Remove all metal and foil

before cooking.

Metal food containers – Metal containers will not allow proper cooking in

the microwave and can also damage the appliance.

DEFROSTING FROZEN FOODS

1. If you try to completely defrost frozen foods in the microwave oven, uneven

defrosting may occur due to the differences in the thickness and shape of

the food. Drippings may also result, and sometimes a part of the food cooks

although other parts still remain frozen. In actual usage of frozen foods, you

should not normally completely defrost food, but 70% defrosting in the oven

may be helpful for the next step of preparing the food for cooking.

2. To defrost evenly, turn over or rearrange the food during defrosting.

3. To defrost fatty meat, heat for a short time in the oven and leave it to stand

at room temperature, or heat it intermittently until defrosted.

4. When you defrost a whole chicken, or any frozen food of irregular shape,

wrap legs or thin parts with aluminum foil. Otherwise thin parts will be

defrosted faster and sometimes cooked before other parts have properly

defrosted. For big pieces of meat, wrap the sides with aluminum foil so that

they will be uniformly thawed by vertical microwaves only.

5. Ice should be removed at times during defrosting.

FOR BEST RESULTS

1. When determining time for particular foods, always consider the minimum

cooking time and check occasionally during cooking for progress. The

microwave oven cooks quickly, therefore it is easy to overcook your foods.

2. Be careful of the cooking time for small quantities of foods, or foods with

low water content. Food may burn if cooked too long.

3. Do not use the oven for drying kitchen towels or napkins. Items may burn if

heated too long.

4. Open the door and give the dish a half turn, or turn the food over during

cooking. This helps to achieve more even cooking. When you cook chicken

the legs cook faster than other parts. Wrap the legs with aluminum foil

during cooking to reect the microwave energy in order to create even

cooking.

5. Remember that after the heating cycle has been completed, internal food

temperatures continue to rise slightly in foods heated in this oven. Always

verify the food has been cooked to required temperatures with a food

thermometer.

6. Breads, pastries and pies are drier than typical foods and therefore may

heat slower. They also tend to be overheated with resulting poor quality

therefore, baked foods should only be heated until the crust is warm to the

touch, 113°F - 131°F (45°C - 55°C).

7. Do not overheat your food: 99% of the food quality complaints of microwave

heated foods can be traced to overheating.

8. Factors determine the success of microwave food preparation include:

a) Temperature of foods: frozen or refrigerated food items require

longer heating times to reach a desired serving temperature than foods

from room temperature.

b) Food components: foods high in sugar, salt, fats and moisture

content heat faster because these properties attract microwave energy.

Denser foods high in protein and ber absorb microwave energy slower

which means a lengthier heating time.

c) Bulk/volume: the greater the mass of food, the longer it takes to heat.

d) Containers: Heating foods with either high sugar or high fat content

should be done only in high temperature resistant containers since

these foods get very hot. Low temperature restaurant glass or plastic

platters may crack or warp under similar conditions. Do not heat food in

a sealed container or bag. Foods expand when heated and can break

the container or bag.

e) Heated liquids can erupt if not mixed with air. Do not heat liquids in

your microwave oven without rst stirring.

cleaning

To maintain the appearance and increase the service life, clean your

equipment daily.
