Take ready made meals out of their packaging. They will heat up more quickly and
evenly if you place them in microwavable dishes. Different parts of the meal may
heat up at different rates.
Food that is laid flat heats up quicker than if it is piled high. Therefore, it is best to
spread out the food so that it lies flat in the container. You should not place layers of
food on top of each other.
Always cover the food. If you do not have a suitable lid for your dish, use a plate or
special microwave foil.
You should stir or turn the food two to three times during heating.
Once you have heated up the meals, leave them to stand for another 2 to 5 minutes
so that the temperature can stabilize.
The individual taste of the food is retained to a large degree. You can therefore use
less salt and spices.
