MICROWAVE COOKING ADVICE

Microwave cooking

To cook/defrost food in a microwave oven, the microwave energy must be able to pass through the container to penetrate the food. Therefore it is important to choose suitable cookware.

Round/oval dishes are preferable to square/oblong ones as the food in the corners tends to overcook.

It is important to turn, rearrange or stir food to ensure even heating.

Standing time is necessary after cooking as it enables the heat to disperse equally throughout the food.

 

Food characteristics

Composition

Foods high in fat or sugar (e.g. Christmas pudding, mince pies) require less heating time. Care

 

should be taken as overheating can lead to fire.

Density

Food density will affect the amount of cooking time needed. Light porous foods, such as

 

cakes or bread, cook more quickly than heavy, dense foods, such as roasts and casseroles.

Quantity

The cooking time must be increased as the amount of food placed in the oven increases.

 

E.g. four potatoes will take longer to cook than two.

Size

Small foods and small pieces cook faster than large ones, as microwaves can penetrate from

 

all sides to the centre. For even cooking make all the pieces the same size.

Shape

Foods which are irregular in shape, such as chicken breasts or drumsticks, take longer to cook

 

in the thicker parts. Round shapes cook more evenly than square shapes when microwave

 

cooking.

Temperature

The initial temperature of food affects the amount of cooking time needed. Chilled foods will

of food

take longer to cook than food at room temperature. Cut into foods with fillings, e.g. jam

 

doughnuts, to release heat or steam.

MC1753E, MC1763E specifications

The AEG microwave ovens MC1763E and MC1753E represent a blend of innovative technology and sleek design, making them ideal additions to modern kitchens. Both models are designed to provide versatile cooking options, ensuring that users can efficiently prepare a wide variety of meals.

One of the main features of the AEG MC1763E and MC1753E is their powerful microwave capability, which allows for quick and even cooking. With a high wattage output, these microwaves can significantly reduce cooking times while ensuring that food is cooked thoroughly.
