The
Importance of Microwave Cooking |
Microwave
cooking is a fast, simple and hygienic way
of cooking. It will retain food's original
flavor, and freshness. Only if you follow
our recipes closely, you will be ensured of
success in turning out a delicious recipe.
If you are a beginner, do not cook food on
long timing to avoid over-cooking.
Cooking time and food quantity should be in
proportion. When cooking large portion of
food, stir the food at short intervals to
allow even cooking.
To avoid food dehydration, cover the food
while cooking. Food marinated with cornflour
(e.g. meat, prawns) should have oil added
to avoid sticking in a lump. Because microwave
cooking is faster than the conventional, it
is important to marinate food properly to
ensure proper seasoning.
When soup needs thickening, add corn flour
with a little water into the boiling soup
and stir briskly till it turns translucent.
If the soup quantity is more than you need,
prolong boiling period to evaporate extra
moisture.
When using microwave oven to boil soup, there
is no need to add in water again if seasoning
or stock is added to the soup.
Microwave cooking is most effective for food
up to a maximum of 1 inches thick. To ensure
even cooking, spread your food evenly with
harder-to-cook part at the top.
If food is not cooked or not tender enough,
do not uncover or unwrap the food, but let
it simmer for a while.
When cooking hard stem vegetables, place the
vegetables in a criss-cross position.
Once when the microwave oven door opens, the
microwave will cut off automatically. To continue
cooking them, you have to start oven by pressing
the button again. |
