cooking Guide for rice and pasta
Rice : Use a large glass pyrex bowl with lid - rice doubles in
volume during cooking. Cook covered.
After the cooking time is over, stir before standing time and
salt or add herbs and butter.
Remark: the rice may not have absorbed all water after the
cooking time is finished.
pasta : Use a large glass pyrex bowl. Add boiling water, a pinch of
salt and stir well. Cook uncovered.
Stir occasionally during and after cooking. Cover during
standing time and drain thoroughly afterwards.

cooking Guide for fresh vegetables
Use a suitable glass pyrex bowl with lid. Add 30-45 ml cold water (2-3
tbsp.) for every 250 g unless another water quantity is recommended - see
table. Cook covered for the minimum time - see table. Continue cooking to
get the result you prefer. Stir once during and once after cooking. Add salt,
herbs or butter after cooking. Cover during a standing time of 3 minutes.
Hint : Cut the fresh vegetables into even sized pieces. The
smaller they are cut, the quicker they will cook.
All fresh vegetables should be cooked using full microwave power (900 W).
