APPETIZERS
CONVERTING RECIPES
Most hot appetizers adapt well to microwave
cooking, the exception being those wrapped in
pastry. Pastry requires the hot environment of
the conventional oven to become crisp.
• Toppings for canapés can be made ahead
and then placed on bread or crackers just
before heating. This guarantees crispness.
Cover appetizers or dips only when called for
by a recipe. Use casserole lids, wax paper,
plastic wrap, or paper towel.
Appetizers and dips that contain cheese,
mayonnaise and other delicate ingredients
are usually heated on power level 1. A higher
setting might cause separation or drying.
