Adapting recipes for the microwave
oven
If you would like to adapt your favourite
recipes for the microwave, you should take
note of the following: Shorten cooking
times by a third to a half. Follow the
example of the recipes in this book.
Foods which have a high moisture con-
tent such as meat, fish, poultry, vegetables,
fruit, stews and soups can be prepared in
your microwave without any difficulty.
Foods which have little moisture, such
as platters of food, should have the surface
moistened prior to heating or cooking.
The amount of liquid to be added to
raw foods, which are to be braised, should
be reduced to about two thirds of the
quantity in the original recipe. If necessary,
add more liquid during cooking.
The amount of fat to be added can be
reduced considerably. A small amount of
butter, margarine or oil is sufficient to
flavour food. For this reason your
microwave is excellent for preparing low-fat
foods as part of a diet.
