Notes
The times given apply to food placed in a cold oven.
■
The temperature and baking time depend on the consistency
■
and amount of the mixture. This is why temperature ranges
are given in the tables. Begin with the lower temperature and,
if necessary, use a higher setting the next time, since a lower
temperature results in more even browning.

Increase or reduce the cooking times using the following rule of
thumb:
Double the amount = almost double the cooking time
Half the amount = half the cooking time
Next time, set a shorter cooking time or select a lower microwave
power setting. Cover the food and add more liquid.
Set a longer time. Large quantities and food which is piled high
require longer times.
Stir it during the cooking time and next time, select a lower micro-
wave power setting and a longer cooking time.
Next time, select a lower microwave power setting. If you are
defrosting a large quantity, turn it several times.
