Adding moisture
Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content
should be covered or allowed to stand so that the heat disperses evenly. Add a small amount of
water to dry food to help it cook.
Venting
After covering a dish with plastic wrap, vent the plastic wrap by turning back one corner to let
excess steam escape.
CookIng meAT
Place the meat fat side down on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish. Use narrow
strips of aluminum foil to shield any bone tips or thin pieces of meat. Check the temperature in several
places before letting the meat stand the recommended time.
The following temperatures are the removal temperatures. The temperature of the food will rise during
standing time.
