TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
BLANCH VEGETABLES
Vegetables should be blanched prior to freezing. This
retains the quality and aroma of the food. Process:
Wash and cut the vegetable. Put 250 g vegetables
and 275 ml water into a bowl, cover and heat for 3-5
minutes. Put blanched foods immediately into ice water
to stop the foods from cooking and allow to drip dry.
Seal the blanched vegetables in an airtight container
and freeze.
PRESERVING FRUIT AND VEGETABLES
Preserving fruits and vegetables
using your microwave is quick and
easy. Special jars, sealing rings and
clamps suitable for microwave use
are available. The manufacturers
will supply detailed user instructions.
SMALL AND LARGE AMOUNTS
The microwave times are dependent on the amount
of food you thaw, heat or cook. This means that small
portions will be done faster than large ones. A basic
rule is:
DOUBLE THE AMOUNT = ALMOST DOUBLE THE TIME
HALF THE AMOUNT = HALF THE TIME
HIGH AND FLAT CONTAINERS
Both containers will have the same capacity, but
cooking will take longer in the high container than in
the flat one. We recommend that
you use flat containers with a large
surface whenever possible. Use high
containers only for foods that might
boil over, e.g. noodles, rice, milk,
etc.
ROUND AND OVAL CONTAINERS
Foods in round or oval containers cook more evenly
than foods in square containers, because the microwave
energy concentrates in corners. The food located in the
corner will overcook.
COVERS
Covering your food will help retain moisture and
shorten the cooking time. Use a lid, microwave foil
or a cover cap. Foods that should
develop a crust, e.g. roast or
chicken, should not be covered.
Follow this rule: If it should be
covered when using a conventional
stove, it should be covered in the
microwave. If it is cooked uncovered
on a conventional stove, it should also be cooked
uncovered in the microwave.
IRREGULAR SHAPED FOODS
should be placed with the thicker or
more compact side to the outside.
Vegetables (e.g. Broccoli) should
be placed with the stems toward the
outside. Thicker parts will require a
longer cooking time and will receive
more microwave energy when
placed on the outside. The food will be cooked more
evenly.
STIRRING
Foods must be stirred, because microwaves reach
the outer areas first. Stirring will
even the temperature and the
food will be more evenly heated.
ARRANGEMENT
Several individual portions, e.g. pudding molds, cups
or potatoes, should be placed in a ring-shape on the
turntable. Leave some space between portions, so that
the microwave energy will penetrate the food from all
sides.
TURNING
Medium size parts, like mincemeat and steaks, should
be turned over once during the cooking process to
shorten the cooking time. Large pieces, like roast and
chicken, should be turned over because the topside will
receive more microwave energy than the bottom side, it
could dry out if it is not turned.
STANDING TIME
Allowing standing time is one of the most important
rules of microwave cooking. Almost
all foods thawed, heated or cooked
in the microwave require a short or
longer standing time, which allows
the equalization of temperature.
Fluids then can evenly flow through
the food.
