Because most cooking containers must be covered
during Cook, this feature is best with foods that you
want to steam or retain moisture.
NOTE: Use of the metal shelf with Cook is
NOT recommended.
Foods Not Recommended
Foods that must be
cooked uncovered,
foods that require
constant attention,
foods that require
addition of ingredients
during cooking and
foods calling for a dry
look or crisp surface after cooking should not be cooked
using this feature. It is best to Micro Cook them.
Foods that microwave best using the temperature
probe should be Temp Cooked or Auto Roasted.
