General Tips for Cooking using a Microwave

General Tips for Cooking using a Microwave
• spread the food equally on the plate to allow the microwaves to cook food evenly.
• food pieces should be cut into equal sizes to allow the food to cook evenly
• cover the food when microwave, this will help the food to retain its moisture and it will avoid massing the microwave walls. It also helps to avoid harmful radio waves from entering the food
• always allow the food to stand as most foods will continue cooking after removing it from the microwave
• Cut the cooking duration into 3 parts, stirring the food each time
• Use the recommended cooking time as a guide, cook for 10% less than the minimum cooking time and check the results, you can always add the food back into the microwave
• Recommended microwave oven cooking times vary and are only guide lines, in my experience, cook for 10% less than the minimum you will need to add another 20%.
ALTHOUGH SOME TIME WE NEED TO USE A MICROWAVE ,AVOID USING THEM FOR EVERYDAY COOKING FOR HEALTH REASONS.
