Microwave cooking
Microwave defrosting
Cook food covered. If you want to keep a crust
cook food without a cover.
Do not overcook the dishes by setting the pow‐
er and time too high. The food can dry out,
burn or cause fire.
Do not use the oven to cook eggs or snails in
their shells, because they can burst. Pierce the
yolk of fried egg before reheating it.
Pierce food with skin or peel several times be‐
fore cooking.
Cut vegetables into similar-sized pieces.
After you turn off the oven, take the food out
and let it stand for a few minutes.
Put the frozen, unwrapped food on a small up‐
turned plate with a container below it, or on a
defrosting rack or plastic sieve so that the de‐
frosting liquid can leak out.
Remove defrosted pieces subsequently.
To cook fruit and vegetables without defrosting
them first, you can use a higher microwave
power.
