WHICH KIND OF FOOD CAN BE
COOKED WITH MICROWAVES
Almost every kind of food can be cooked
with excellent results using microwaves.

recipes in main sections: first courses
(entrees), sauces, main courses,
vegetables, cereals, cakes (desserts).
A special mention is dedicated to the

Some simple suggestions can be
certainly useful.
Vegetables and fruits.
They cook in much shorter time and
keep all their natural power of vitamins.
It s important to riddle with a fork the
surface of vegetables and frui that have
hull or peel to let steam get out.
Pasta and rice.
They cook in the same time than using
traditional system. Anyhow microwaves
oven makes you dirty fewer pans and let
you season pasta and rice in the same
pan you re going to use, still hot, to serve
and to bring to table.
Meat and fish. Fish cooks very quickly
without melting in the microwaves oven
and meat keeps soft and tasty. In order to
help cooking it s better to make some
cuts with a sharp knife on big size fishes
or on big size roasted meats
Eggs
Never cook entire eggs in the microwave
oven. Steam hold in the egg-shell would
cause an explosion. On the contrary,
microwaves oven is excellent to prepare
omelettes and recipes with eggs as main
ingredient.
