COOKING EGGS

You can use your microwave oven to cook eggs. Cook

them until they are just set as they become tough if they

are overcooked.

WARNING

Never cook eggs in their shells and never warm

up hard-boiled eggs in their shells. Eggs cooked

or warmed up in their shells can explode. Always

pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting.

COOKING VEGETABLES

Vegetables should be washed prior to cooking. Usually,

no extra water is needed. When cooking dense

vegetables such as potatoes, carrots and green beans,

add about ¼ cup water.

Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.)

will cook faster than larger ones.

Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or

corn on the cob, should be arranged in a circle on the

turntable before cooking. They will cook more evenly if

turned over halfway through the cooking process.

Always place vegetables such as asparagus and broccoli

with the stems pointing towards the edge of the dish and

the tips toward the center.

When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with

a lid or vented microwavable plastic wrap.

Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash,

eggplant, etc., should have their skins pierced in several

spots before cooking to prevent them from bursting.

For a more even cooking result, stir or rearrange whole

vegetables halfway through the cook time.

Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing

time. (The standing time refers to the time necessary for

dense, large foods and vegetables to ﬁnish cooking after

they come out of the oven.) A baked potato can stand on

the counter for ﬁve minutes before cooking is completed,

while a dish of peas can be served immediately.
