MICROWAVE COOKING ADVICE
Face & Hands: Always use oven gloves to remove food or cookware from the oven.
Stand back when opening the oven door to allow heat or steam to disperse. When
removing covers (such as cling film), opening roasting bags or popcorn packaging,
direct steam away from face and hands.
Check the temperature of food and drink, stir before serving. Take special care
when serving to babies, children or the elderly. The contents of feeding bottles and
baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken and the temperature is to be checked
before consumption to avoid burns.
Food Characteristics
Composition Foods high in fat or sugar (e.g. Christmas pudding, mince pies) require less heating
time. Care should be taken as overheating can lead to fire.
Bones in food conduct heat, making the food cook more quickly. Care must be
taken so that the food is cooked evenly.
Density Food density will affect the amount of cooking time needed.
Light porous foods, such as cakes or bread, cook more quickly than heavy, dense
foods, such as roasts and casseroles.
Quantity The number of microwaves in your oven remains the same regardless of how much
food is being cooked. The cooking time must be increased as the amount of food
placed in the oven increases.
e.g. Four potatoes will take longer to cook than two.
Size Small foods and small pieces cook faster than large ones, as microwaves can
penetrate from all sides to the centre. For even cooking make all the pieces the
same size.
Shape Foods which are irregular in shape, such as chicken breasts or drumsticks,
take longer to cook in the thicker parts. For even cooking, place the thickest
parts to the outside of the dish where they will receive more energy.
Round shapes cook more evenly than square shapes when microwave cooking.
Temperature of
food
The initial temperature of food affects the amount of cooking time needed.
Chilled foods will take longer to cook than food at room temperature.
e.g. a cake made with chilled ingredients, (i.e. margarine) will take longer to cook
than a cake made with ingredients at room temperature.
The temperature of the container is not a true indication of the temperature of the
food or drink. Cut into foods with fillings, for example jam doughnuts, to release
heat or steam.
