Cheese and E~s

1. Eggs maybe prepared many ways in the microwave oven. Always pierce whole yolks before microwaving to prevent bursting.

Wh and Seafood

1.Fish is done when it flakes easily when tested with a fork. Center may still be slightly translucent, but will continue cooking as fish stands a few minutes after cooking.

2.Cook fish with or without sauce. A tight cover steams fish. Use a lighter cover of wax paper or paper towel for less steaming.

3.Do not overcook fish. Check at minimum time.
