Cooking time
• Smallerquantitiesoffoodcookmore
rapidly than large quantities. If the amount
of food is doubled, the preparation
time must be more than doubled
correspondingly.
• Smallpiecesofmeat,smallfishand
chopped vegetables cook more quickly
than large pieces. For the same reason, it
is recommended that if, for example, you
wish to make goulash, stews or similar, the
meat should be cut into pieces no bigger
than 2 x 2 cm.
• Thecompactnessofthefoodisalsovery
important for the cooking time. The more
compact the food is, the longer it takes to
cook.
• Wholejointsrequirealongercookingtime
than stewed dishes.
• Ajointrequiresalongertimethanadish
using minced meat.
• Thecolderthefood,thelongerthe
cooking time needs to be. Food at room
temperature will therefore cook faster than
foodfromafridgeorfreezer.
• Whencookingvegetables,thecooking
time depends on the freshness of the
vegetables. Therefore, check the condition
of the vegetables and add or deduct a little
time accordingly.
• Theshortcookingtimewhenusingan
appliance means that the food does not
overcook. If required, a little water can be
added.
• Whencookingfishandvegetables,youonly
need to use the minimum of water.
Microwave power
The choice of power setting depends on the
condition of the food to be cooked.
In most cases, the food is cooked on full
power.
• Fullpowerisused,amongotherthings,
for reheating food quickly, boiling water or
similar.
• Lowpowerisprincipallyusedtodefrost
food and prepare dishes containing cheese,
milk or egg. (Whole eggs in their shell
cannot be cooked in the appliance, as there
is a risk of the eggs exploding.) In addition,
lower power settings are also used to finish
off and to retain the excellent aroma of a
dish.
General information on cooking
• Ifthewholemealistobepreparedinthe
appliance, it is recommended that you
start with the most compact foods, such as
potatoes. Once these are ready, cover them
while the rest of the food is prepared.
• Mostfoodshouldbecovered.Aclose-
fitting cover retains the steam and
moisture, which shortens the cooking time
in the appliance. This is particularly the
case when cooking vegetables, fish dishes
and casseroles.
• Coveringfoodalsodistributestheheat
better, thus ensuring rapid and excellent
results.
• Inordertoachievethebestpossible
results, it is important to position the food
correctly, as the microwave rays are most
powerful in the centre of the appliance. If,
for example, you are baking potatoes, you
should position them along the edge of the
glass turntable so that they cook evenly.
• Inordertocookcompactdishessuchas
meat and poultry evenly, it is important to
turn the meat a few times.
• Youcanusetheapplianceforbaking,
although not recipes that include yeast.
• Whenpreparingfoodwithathickskin,
e.g. potatoes, apples, whole squash or
chestnuts, you should prick holes in the
skin to prevent the food from bursting
during cooking.
