Food height
• With food that is quite thick (generally roasts),
the lower part will cook faster. This means that it
is sometimes necessary to turn such items over
several times.
• Thick or dense items can be placed in a higher
position, enabling the microwaves to act on the
bottom and middle parts of the item.
Cooking suggestions
Factors affecting microwaving time:
• Microwaving time depends on a number of factors.
The temperature of the ingredients used in a recipe
can considerably affect the amount of cooking
time required. Thus, a cake made with ice-cold
butter, milk and eggs will take considerably longer
to cook than one made with ingredients at room
temperature.
• Particularly when it comes to bread, cakes and
cream sauces, you are recommended with certain
recipes to remove the food from the oven before it
is fully cooked. Such foods if left covered outside
the oven will continue to cook as heat flows from the
outer to the inner layers of the food.
If you leave items in the oven until they are fully
done, you risk burning the outer layer. With time you
will become a better judge of how long items require
to be cooked and left to stand.
• You can place very finely carved pieces of meat on
top of each other. Thicker items such as sausages
and meat slices should be placed close together.
• Heat gravy and sauces in a separate dish. Narrow,
deep dishes are better for this purpose than wide,
shallow ones. Containers should be no more than
two thirds full when you heat gravy, sauces or
soups.
• If you are cooking fish whole, pierce it so that the
skin does not burst.
• When using cling film, bags or baking paper, pierce
or leave an opening to enable steam to escape.
• Small pieces of food will cook quicker than large
pieces, and evenly shaped pieces will cook quicker
than other pieces. For the best results cut food
evenly into pieces of equal size.
• Do not leave items to cook unattended. Your
microwave oven is automatically lit up when it is
in operation, enabling you to keep an eye on the
condition of the items being cooked.
Defrosting
• The defrosting time may depend on the shape of
the packet. Shallow, rectangular packets defrost
more quickly than deep containers.
• Separate the items as they start to defrost. They will
then defrost more readily.
• The more food you cook, the longer it will take. Twice
the amount of food will take roughly twice as long.
If it takes four minutes to cook one potato, it will take
on average seven minutes to cook two potatoes.
The amount of microwaves that your oven
produces remains constant however much food
you place inside it. This means that the more food
you place inside, the longer it will take to do.
Liquid content
• Liquid content affects cooking time because
microwaves are sensitive to moisture. Foods with
natural liquid content (such as vegetables, fish,
and poultry) will cook quickly and easily. When
cooking dry items such as rice and pulses you are
recommended to add water.
• Remember that moisture is eliminated in a
microwave oven, so that when cooking drier items
such as certain vegetables you should first wet
them with a little water or cover them so that they
retain their moisture.
• When cooking foods with very little water content
(thawing bread, making pop-corn) evaporation
takes place rapidly. In such cases oven operates
as if it is empty and foods can get burnt; oven or
the utensils can get damaged. Therefore, make
sure that you just set the required cooking time and
never leave the oven unattended during cooking.
Steam
• The moisture within the food may sometimes cause
the oven to steam up when it is operating. This is
normal.
