7.3 Tips for the microwave
Result Remedy
You cannot find details for the
amount of food prepared.
Find details for similar type of food. Increase or
shorten the length of the cooking time accord‐
ing to the following rule: double the amount -
almost double the time, half the amount - half
the time.
The food after cooking is too dry. Set shorter cooking time or select lower micro‐
wave power and cover with material suitable
for use in the microwave.
The food is still not defrosted, hot or
cooked after the end of cooking
time .
Set longer cooking time or select higher micro‐
wave power. Note that taller dishes generally
need longer cooking time. Stir or turn food dur‐
ing cooking.
