Cooking Techniques

Arranging – Place food in a circular pattern with the thickest areas toward the outside of dish.

Covering – Most foods cook and reheat more evenly when covered.

Shielding – Cover thinner areas of food with foil to prevent over-cooking or defrosting too quickly, i.e. chicken drumsticks. Do not wrap baking potatoes in foil.

Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface of the oven.

CAUTION: Stirring and Turning – Liquids can become super heated beyond boiling when heated in the microwave. Stir liquids before and after heating to help prevent “eruption” because of overheating. Stir foods from the outer edges toward center of utensil or turn food over once during cooking.

Standing Time – Allow food to stand to complete cooking.
