Cooking Tips
Cooking tips for microwave oven
Food tempera-
ture
Lower temperature requires longer cooking time. Frozen
food needs longer heating time than common food.
Food moisture
As the microwave is easy to be absorbed by humid food,
larger humidity results in shorter cooking time.
As the microwave can only penetrate 2-4cm into the food,
the thickness of the food will influence the cooking time.
Food shape
Food density
Heating times are different between close food and loose
food. The former requires longer time.
Food quantity
The energy of the microwave is a certain value, and will not
change along with the quantity of the food. Therefore larger
quantity of food requires longer cooking time.
Bone and fat
Bones have quicker heat transmission, and fats absorb
more energy. Therefore please pay attention to the over-
heat possibility in cooking the meat with bones and fats.
Add cover
It can reduce the radiation of heat and vapor to put the food
into container with cover, and thus shorten the cooking time.
Settle
Please settle the food in circular shape during cooking, and
avoid piling up as far as possible. It can improve the evenness.
Stir
When cooking liquid food like the soap, juice or beverage
etc., stir it slightly before and during cooking. It can avoid
splashing effectively.
Seal
Seal the food with freshness-preserve film to avoid splash-
ing and contaminating the cavity. It can also preserve the
moisture and nutrition.
