Cooking Tips
BROWNING
Meat and poultry with high fat content that are cooked for 10 or
15 minutes or longer will brown lightly. Foods cooked a shorter time can
be brushed with a browning agent, such as Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce
or barbecue sauce.
COVERING
Covering food traps heat and steam, and causes the food to cook
quickly. Use a lid or microwave-safe plastic wrap with one corner folded
back to vent the excess steam. Lids on glass casseroles can become hot
during cooking. Handle carefully. Waxed paper will prevent the food
from splattering in the Microwave Oven and help retain heat. When
warming bread items, use waxed paper, napkins or paper towels. To
absorb extra moisture, wrap sandwiches and fatty foods in paper towels.
SPACING
Arrange individual foods, such as baked potatoes, cupcakes and hors
d’oeuvres in a circle and at least 1 inch apart. This will help the food
cook evenly.
STIRRING
Stirring blends flavors and redistributes the heat in foods. Always stir
from the outside toward the center of the dish. Food on the outside of
the dish heats first.
