Tips for Microwave Cooking
Tips for microwave cooking
Food temperature The lower the food temperature is, the longer the cooking time will cost. The frozen food generally costs
longer time than the common food.
Food humidity Humid food absorbs more microwave energy. Thus the higher the food humidity is, the shorter the cooking
time costs.
Food shape The microwave can only pass through the food for 2-4cm under surface. Therefore the thickness of the food
will influence the heating time.
Food density Different density requires different heating time. Food with high density will cost longer cooking time.
Food quantity The microwave energy is fixed and will not change with the quantity of food. Therefore large quantity of
food will cost long cooking time.
Bones and fat Bones can transfer heat faster than common food. Fat can absorb more microwave energy. Therefore please
pay attention to overheating on certain part when you cook meat with bones and fat.
Cover It will reduce losses of heat and vapor by putting the food into container with cover, and thus will shorten the
cooking time.
Placement Place the food in circular shape and avoid piling up. It can improve the evenness during cooking.
Stirring In heating liquid food like soap, juice or beverage, please stir the liquid both before and halfway during
heating. It can effectively prevent the liquid from boiling and splashing.
Sealing Sealing the food with preservative film can prevent the liquid from splashing and soiling the cavity. It can
also keep the moisture and nutrition of the food.
Standing After cooking is finished, the food taken out of the oven is still being heated inside. Considering of the flavor
and cooking degree, you can give it some standing time.
