Examples

Proving dough

(500 g flour) leave covered to rise for approx. 8-10 minutes at setting 1.

Skinning tomatoes

Score 3 tomatoes crosswise at the bot- tom, drop into water and heat at setting 5 for approx. 2 minutes. The skin can now be peeled away easily. Take care, the tomatoes may be very hot.

The examples below are for an oven with a maximum microwave power out- put of 900/1000 watts.

For models with a different power out- put scale, adjust according to the table on page 12. E.g. for a 750 watt model use setting 6 instead of setting 5.
