MANUAL COOKING - SOUPS AND SANDWICHES
A large variety of sandwich
combinations can be made in your
microwave oven. Because
sandwiches heat quickly, be careful
not to overcook them -- the bread can
become tough and chewy. Heat
breads until warm, not hot, and
cheese until it just begins to melt.
Let the following tips guide you when
adapting or creating your own
sandwiches.
CONVERTING SANDWICH
RECIPES
• Heat sandwiches on white paper
towels or paper plates. To prevent
splattering, as well as to absorb
steam and prevent sogginess, you
can wrap each sandwich in a paper
towel. Remove wrapping
immediately after warming. It takes
less than 1 minute to heat most
sandwiches. Heat on power level
P-80.
• Thinly sliced meat heats better than
thickly sliced meat.
The slower-cooking thick slices
often cause the bread to overcook
before the meat is hot.
CONVERTING SOUP RECIPES
• When cooking canned soups,
remove from can.
Use microwave-safe dish.
Add milk or water as directed on
can. Cover dish.
• Stir cream-style soup halfway
through cooking time. Let stand,
covered, 3 minutes before serving.
