TIME COOKING - APPETIZERS AND RICE
CONVERTING RECIPES
Most hot appetizers adapt well to microwave cooking, the exception being those wrapped in pastry. Pastry requires the hot environment of the conventional oven to become crisp.
•Toppings for canapes can be made ahead and then placed on bread or crackers just before heating.
This guarantees crispness.
•Cover appetizers or dips only when called for by a recipe. Use casserole lids, wax paper, plastic wrap, or paper towel.
Appetizers and dips that contain cheese, mayonnaise and other delicate ingredients are usually heated on power level 1. A higher setting might cause separation or drying.
