Page 23: Eggs & Cheese
Eggs cook differently by microwave. The high fat content of egg yolks absorb energy, so yolks cook faster than whites. It's easy to poach eggs in a microwave oven, but if you want soft yolks, remove eggs from the oven before whites are completely cooked. A brief standing time allows whites to set without overcooking yolks. -
