Cooking and heating up in the microwave

General notes
• To arrange food so that it cooks properly place the food with the largest
pieces towards the outer edge.
• Note the exact cooking or heating times.
• Choose the shortest available cooking or heating time and extend it if
necessary.
WARNING!
Overcooked food can start to smoke or even catch fire.
• Cover food during cooking or heating with a cover that is suitable for the
microwave. Covering the food helps avoid splashes; furthermore the food is
more evenly cooked.
• Foods such as chicken pieces or hamburgers should be turned once during
cooking to speed up cooking. Larger pieces such as joints or roasting chickens
must be turned at least once.
• It is also important to reposition food, e.g. with meatballs: After half of the
cooking time has expired, the food should be repositioned from top to
bottom and from the middle to the outside.
• After heating, stir the food if possible to ensure even temperatures, otherwise
let the food stand for a short time.

your existing dishes – if the material is suitable.
