Additional recipes

10.4 Microwave recommendations

Place the food in the centre of the wire shelf. Use first shelf position.

Turn or stir the food halfway through the cooking time to improve the results. Stir liquid dishes from time to time. Stir the food before serving.

Put the spoon into the cup or glass when heating up liquids, to improve heat distribution and avoid overboiling. The spoon must not touch any part of the oven interior, this may cause sparking.

Place the food into the appliance without packaging. The packaged ready meals can be put into the appliance only when the packaging is microwave safe. Refer to "Hints and tips", Microwave suitable cookware and materials section.

Do not cover the food when using Microwave combi functions. Refer to "Daily use" chapter.

Do not use Microwave functions or Microwave combination functions when there is no food inside the appliance.

Microwave cooking

Cover the food for cooking or reheating with microwave functions. If you want to keep a crust, cook food without a cover.

Do not overcook the dishes by setting the power and time too high. The food can dry out, burn or cause fire.

Do not use the appliance to cook eggs or snails in their shells, because they can burst. Pierce the yolk of fried egg before reheating it.

Pierce food with skin or peel several times before cooking.

Cut vegetables into similar-sized pieces.

After you turn off the appliance, take the food out and let it stand for a few minutes to allow the heat distribute evenly.

Microwave defrosting

Place the frozen, unwrapped food on a small upturned plate with a container below it, or on a defrosting rack or plastic sieve so that the defrosting liquid can leak out.

Remove defrosted pieces subsequently.

To cook fruit and vegetables without defrosting them first, you can use a higher microwave power.

Turning improves the results. For sensitive foods such as meat, turn upside down twice during defrosting.
