Knowing how the food   should look and taste will help when adapting recipes   for microwaving. Foods that require browning or   crisp, dry surfaces will cook better conventionally.   Prick Foods to Release Pressure. Steam builds up   pressure in foods that are tightly covered by a skin or   membrane. Prick foods, such as potatoes (as you do   conventionally), egg yolks and chicken livers, to prevent   bursting.   ● Moist foods, such as vegetables, fruits, poultry and   seafood, microwave well.   ● Rich foods, such as bar cookies, moist cakes and   Occasionally, repositioning a dish in the oven   helps food cook more evenly.

To rotate 1/4 turn, turn the dish until the side that   was to the back of the oven is to the side.   candies, are suitable for microwaving because of their   high fat and sugar content.   ● Reduce conventional cooking time by one-half to   one-third. Check food after minimum time to avoid   overcooking.   ● Small amounts of butter or oil can be used for flavoring,   Basic Microwave Guidelines   but are not needed to prevent sticking.   Density of Food. In both conventional and microwave   cooking, dense foods, such as potatoes, take longer to   cook than light, porous foods, such as rolls, bread or   pieces of cake.   . Seasonings may need to be reduced. Salt meats and   vegetables after cooking.   Covering. In both conventional and microwave cooking,   covers hold in moisture, allow for more even heating and   reduce cooking time. Conventionally, partial covering   allows excess steam to escape. Venting plastic wrap or   covering with wax paper serves the same purpose when   microwaving.   Round Shapes. Since microwaves penetrate foods   to about one inch from top, bottom and sides, round   shapes and rings cook more evenly. Corners receive   more energy and may overcook. This may also happen   when cooking conventionally.   Venting. After covering a dish with plastic wrap, you   vent the plastic wrap by turning back one corner so   excess steam can escape.   Delicacy. Foods with a delicate texture, such as   custards, are best cooked at lower power settings to   avoid toughening.   Natural Moisture of food affects how it cooks. Very   moist foods cook evenly because microwave energy is   attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in   moisture should be covered or allowed to stand so heat   can disperse evenly.   Arranging Food in Oven. In conventional baking, you   position foods, such as cake layers or potatoes, so hot air   can flow around them. When microwaving, you arrange   foods in a ring, so that all sides are exposed to microwave   energy.   Size. Small pieces cook faster than large ones.   Pieces that are similar in size and shape cook more   evenly. With large pieces of food, reduce the power   setting for even cooking.   Stirring. In range-top cooking, you stir foods up from   the bottom to heat them evenly. When microwaving, you   stir cooked portions from the outside to the center. Foods   that require constant stirring conventionally will need   only occasional stirring when microwaving.   Shape of Food. In both types of cooking, thin areas   cook faster than thick areas. This can be controlled in   microwaving by placing thick pieces near the outside   edge and thin pieces in the center.   Turning Over. In range-top cooking, you turn over foods,   such as hamburgers, so both sides can directly contact   the hot pan. When microwaving, turning is often needed   during defrosting or when cooking certain foods, such as   frozen hamburgers.   Starting Temperature. Foods taken from the freezer   or refrigerator take longer to cook than foods at room   temperature. Timings in our recipes are based on the   temperatures at which you normally store the foods.   Time. In conventional cooking, foods such as   roasts or cakes are allowed to stand to finish cooking or to   set. Standing time is especially important in microwave   cooking. Note that a microwaved cake is not placed on   a cooling rack.   Quantity of Food. In both types of cooking, small   amounts usually take less time than large amounts.   This is most apparent in microwave cooking, where   time is directly related to the number of servings.   Shielding. In a conventional oven, you shield chicken   breasts or baked foods to prevent over-browning. When   microwaving, you use small strips of foil to shield thin   parts, such as the tips of wings and legs on poultry, which   would cook before larger parts.   Shelf (on models so equipped).
