Microwave cooking guide

General guidelines

Food suitable for microwave cooking
Many kinds of food are suitable for microwave cooking, including fresh or frozen
vegetables, fruit, pasta, rice, grains, beans, fish, and meat. Sauces, custard,
soups, steamed puddings, preserves, and chutneys can also be cooked in a
microwave oven. Generally speaking, microwave cooking is ideal for any food
that would normally be prepared on a hob.
Covering during cooking
Food should be covered during cooking, as the evaporated water rises as steam
and contributes to cooking process. Food can be covered in different ways such
as with a ceramic plate, plastic cover or microwave suitable cling film.
Standing times
After cooking, it is important to let food stand for recommended standing time to
allow the temperature to even out within the food.
Cooking guide for frozen vegetables
Use a suitable glass Pyrex bowl with lid. Cook covered for the minimum time (see
table).
Continue cooking to get the result you prefer. Stir twice during cooking and once
after cooking.
Add salt, herbs or butter after cooking. Keep covered during standing time.
