7. HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
7.1 Tips for the microwave
| Problem | Remedy |
| You cannot find details for the amount of food prepared. | Look for a similar food. Increase or shorten the length of the cooking times according to the following rule: Double the amount = almost double the time, Half the amount = half the time |
| The food got too dry. | Set shorter cooking time or select lower micro-wave power. |
| The food is not defrosted, hot or cooked after the time came to an end. | Set longer cooking time or set higher power. Note that large dishes need longer time. |
| After the cooking time comes to an end, the food is overheated at the edge but is still not ready in the middle. | Next time set a lower power and a longer time. Stir liquids halfway through, e.g. soup. |
To get better results for rice use a flat, wide dish.
7.2 Defrosting
Always defrost roast with the fat side down.
Do not defrost covered meat because this may cause cooking instead of defrosting.
Always defrost whole poultry breast side down.
7.3 Cooking
Always remove chilled meat and poultry from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before cooking.
Let the meat, poultry, fish and vegetables stay covered after cooking.
Brush a little oil or melted butter over the fish.

Add 30 - 45 ml of cold water for every 250 g of vegetables.
Cut the fresh vegetables into even size pieces before cooking. Cook all vegetables with a cover on the container.
