Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the colour. You can use your microwave oven to:

• Cook CookingPrinciple.

1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron are

distributed uniformly as the food rotates on the turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly.

2. The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to

adepthofabout1inch(2.5cm).Cookingthen continues as the heat is dissipated within the food.

3. Cookingtimesvaryaccordingtotherecipientused

and the properties of the food:

• Quantity and density

• Initial temperature (refrigerated or not) As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even when you have taken the food out of the oven. Standing times specified in recipes and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:

COMBINING MICROWAVES AND THE GRILL

You can also combine microwave cooking with the grill, to cook quickly and brown at the same time. ALWAYS use microwave-safe and oven-proof cookware. Glass or ceramic dishes are ideal as they allow the microwaves to penetrate the food evenly. ALWAYS use oven gloves when touching the recipients in the oven, as they will be very hot.

: Unsafe cooking guide MICROWAVES Microwave energy actually penetrates food, attracted and absorbed by its water, fat and sugar content. The microwaves cause the molecules in the food to move rapidly. The rapid movement of these molecules creates friction and the resulting heat cooks the food. COOKING Cookware for microwave cooking: Cookwaremustallowmicrowaveenergytopassthroughitformaximum eciency. Microwaves are reflected by metal, such as stainless steel, aluminium and copper, but they can penetrate through ceramic, glass, porcelain and plastic as well as paper and wood. So food must never be cooked in metal containers. Food suitable for microwave cooking: Many kinds of food are suitable for microwave cooking, including fresh or frozen vegetables, fruit, pasta, rice, grains, beans, fish, and meat. Sauces, custard, soups, steamed puddings, preserves, and chutneys can also be cooked in a microwave oven. Generally speaking, microwave cooking is ideal for any food that would normally be prepared on a hob. Melting butter or chocolate, for example (see the chapter with tips, techniques and hints). Covering during cooking To cover the food during cooking is very important, as the evaporated water rises as steam and contributes to cooking process. Food can be covered in dierent ways: e.g. with a ceramic plate, plastic cover or microwave suitable cling film. Standing times After cooking is over food the standing time is important to allow the temperature to even out within the food.

REHEATING Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that conventional ovens hobs normally take. Use the power levels and reheating times in the following chart as a guide. The times in the chart consider liquids with a room temperature of about +18to+20°Corachilledfoodwithatemperatureofabout+5to+7°C. Arranging and covering Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat – they tend to overcook anddryoutbeforethecentreispipinghot.Reheatingsmallpieceswillbe more successful. Power levels and stirring Some foods can be reheated using 800 W power while others should be reheated using 600 W, 450 W or even 300 W. Checkthetablesforguidance.Ingeneral,itisbettertoreheatfoodusinga lower power level, if the food is delicate, in large quantities, or if it is likely to heat up very quickly (mince pies, for example). Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir again before serving. Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods. To prevent eruptive boiling of liquids and possible scalding, stir before, during and after heating. Keep them in the microwave oven during standing time. We recommend putting a plastic spoon or glass stick into the liquids. Avoid overheating (and therefore spoiling) the food. It is preferable to underestimate cooking time and add extra heating time, if necessary. Heating and standing times When reheating food for the first time, it is helpful to make a note of the time taken – for future reference. Always make sure that the reheated food is piping hot throughout. Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating - to let the temperature even out. The recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes, unless another time is recommended in the chart. Take particular care when heating liquids and baby food. See also the chapter with the safety precautions. GE87MC_SWS_DE68-04114H-01_EN.indd 25 2014-08-01 6:25:52English - 26 REHEATINGLIQUIDS Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched o to allow the temperature to even out. Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after heating.

MANUALDEFROSTING Microwaves are an excellent way of defrosting frozen food. Microwaves gently defrost frozen food in a short period of time. This can be of great advantage, if unexpected guests suddenly show up. Frozenpoultrymustbethoroughlythawedbeforecooking.Removeany metal ties and take it out of any wrapping to allow thawed liquid to drain away. Put the frozen food on a dish without cover. Turn over half way, drain o any liquid and remove any giblets as soon as possible. Checkthefoodoccasionallytomakesurethatitdoesnotfeelwarm. If smaller and thinner parts of the frozen food start to warm up, they can be shield by wrapping very small strips of aluminium foil around them during defrosting. Should poultry start to warm up on the outer surface, stop thawing and allow it to stand for 20 minutes before continuing. Leave the fish, meat and poultry to stand in order to complete defrosting. The standing time for complete defrosting will vary depending on the quantity defrosted. Please refer to the table below. Hint : Flat food defrosts better than thick and smaller quantities needlesstimethanbiggerones.Rememberthishintwhile freezing and defrosting food. Fordefrostingoffrozenfoodwithatemperatureofabout-18to-20°C,use the following table as a guide.

It operates while the door is closed and the turntable is rotating. The turntable’s rotation makes the food brown more evenly. Preheating the grill for 3-4 minutes will make the food brown more quickly. Cookware for grilling: Should be flameproof and may include metal. Do not use any type of plastic cookware, as it can melt. Food suitable for grilling: Chops,sausages,steaks,hamburgers,baconandgammonrashers,thinshportions, sandwiches and all kinds of toast with toppings. Important remark: Whenever the grill only mode is used, make sure that the grill-heating element is under the ceiling in the horizontal position and not on the back-wall in the vertical position. Please remember that food must be placed on the high rack, unless another instruction is recommended. MICROWAVE+GRILL This cooking cycle combines the radiant heat that is coming from the grill with the speed of microwave cooking alternately. It operates only while the door is closed and the turntable is rotating. Due to the rotation of the turntable, the food browns evenly. Cookware for cooking with microwave + grill Pleaseusecookwarethatmicrowavescanpassthrough.Cookwareshouldbe flameproof. Do not use metal cookware with combination mode. Do not use any type of plastic cookware, as it can melt. Food suitable for microwave + grill cooking: Food suitable for combination mode cooking include all kinds of cooked food which need reheating and browning (e.g. baked pasta), as well as foods which require a short cooking time to brown the top of the food. Also, this mode can be used for thick food portions that benefit from a browned and crispy top (e.g. chicken pieces, turning them over half way through cooking). Please refer to the grill table for further details. Important remark: Wheneverthecombinationmode(microwave+grill)isused,makesurethatthegrill heating element is under the ceiling in the horizontal position and not on the back-wall in the vertical position.
