Cooking – the easy way …

•When cooking food, always use tablewear with a lid suitable for microwave cookery (unless stated otherwise).

•The cooking details refer to food at refrigerator temperature. First of all, thaw foodstuffs that are to be cooked.

Note:

The defrosting time for deep-frozen vegetables (-18°C, approx. 100-1000 g) can vary between 5 and

15 minutes. Follow the instructions on the packet if in doubt. Prepare vegetables by washing and cleaning them before cooking.

Preparation instructions are important

•Please observe the various preparation instruc- tions absolutely. Whilst the addition of liquid is required (usually 1-2 tblsp. per 100g vegetables) for some foods, no liquid is required e.g. for cucumbers, Spanish onions, mushrooms and spinach. Other foods must be stirred at least once during cooking.

Observe stand times

•The so-called "stand time" is particularly important, as it is in thawing. The temperature equalisation and the resulting after-cooking should always

amount to 5 - 10 minutes.

During this stand time, leave the food in the switched off microwave or outside the appliance.

•Ater this stand time you can season vegetables or add a little butter if desired.

•When cooking food in bowls or deep-frozen convenience foods, pay attention to the preparation times for cooking in microwave ovens stated on the packaging.

•The details in the following chart are intended as reference values only.
