Meat must be com- pletelv thawed. Place

bn a r+crowave roast- ing rack in a glass baking dish. During standing time, conduc- tion of heat to the center will increase tempera- tures 5 to 10-F.

Whole poultry has many variables which affect doneness. Always use another conventional doneness test such as cutting near bone to check for pink.

Place sandwich on paper plate or towel. For multiple sand- wiches, place probe in center sandwich.

If soup has additional solid ingredients, increase temperature setting. Use disposable cups for single serving.

Partially cover container to speed cooking.
