Round/oval dishes are preferable to
square/oblong ones, as the food in the
corners tends to overcook. A variety of
cookware can be used as listed on
pages 15-16.
Water, sugar and fat in food
absorb microwaves which cause them
to vibrate. This creates heat by friction,
in the same way your hands get warm
when you rub them together.
The outer areas of the food are
heated by the microwave energy, then
the heat moves to the centre by
conduction, as it does in conventional
cooking. It is important to turn,
rearrange or stir food to ensure even
heating.
Once cooking is complete, the
oven automatically stops producing
microwaves.
Standing time is necessary after
cooking, as it enables the heat to
disperse equally throughout the food.
Microwaves cook food faster than
conventional cooking. It is therefore
essential that certain techniques are
followed to ensure good results. Many
of the following techniques are similar
to those used in conventional cooking.
