Cooking Guide for rice and pasta

Rice: Use a large glass pyrex bowl with lid – rice doubles in volume during cooking. Cook covered.

After the cooking time is over, stir before standing time and salt or add herbs and butter.

Remark: the rice may not have absorbed all water after the cooking time is finished.

Pasta: Use a large glass pyrex bowl. Add boiling water, a pinch of salt and stir well. Cook uncovered.

Stir occasionally during and after cooking. Cover during standing time and drain thoroughly afterwards.

Cooking Guide for fresh vegetables

Use a suitable glass pyrex bowl with lid. Add 30-45 ml cold water (2-3 tbsp.) for every 250 g unless another water quantity is recommended – see table. Cook covered for the minimum time – see table. Continue cooking to get the result you prefer. Stir once during and once after cooking. Add salt, herbs or butter after cooking.

Cover during a standing time of 3 minutes.

Hint: Cut the fresh vegetables into even sized pieces. The smaller they are cut, the quicker they will cook.

All fresh vegetables should be cooked using full microwave power (900W).
