FISH AND SEAFOOD

Delicate, tender fish is the result when cooked in the microwave. Because it is moist cooking, the finished fish and seafood, if cooked for the appropriate time, will be opaque and flake with a fork with no signs of dryness.

Because fish is unevenly shaped, the arrangement is critical to success. To arrange several fillets in a deep glass pie plate, put thicker edges to the outside and thinner edges to the inside. Try to create a circle for best results, even overlap thin ends where necessary to achieve overall even thickness.

Single items may do better if the thin ends are shielded with a foil. Some rules apply to the use of foil-Never

cover more than one-third of any item; do not let the foil pieces touch each other or the sides of the microwave oven, and be sure that all ends are tucked under and lie flat to the food. Cover with wax paper to prevent spattering.

Seafood cooks very quickly in the microwave-about 3 to 4 minutes per pound. Wait for stand time, then proceed carefully with extra time, to finish cooking without overcooking. Cooked seafood will be opaque and firm, but not tough.
