Questions and answer
● Q : Why do eggs sometimes pop ?
A : When baking or poaching eggs, the yolk may pop due to steam build-up inside the yolk
membrane. To prevent this, simply pierce the yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never
cook eggs without piercing their shells.
● Q : Why this standing time recommended after the cooking operation has been completed?
A : Standing time is very important.
With microwave cooking, the heat is in the food, not in the oven. Many foods build up
enough internal heat to allow the cooking process to continue, even after the food is
removed from the oven. Standing time for joints of meat, large vegetables and cakes is to
allow the inside to cook completely, without overcooking the outside.
● Q : What does “standing time” mean?
A : “Standing time” means that food should be removed from the oven and covered for
additional time to allow it to finish cooking. This frees the oven for other cooking.
● Q : Why does my oven not always cook as fast as the microwave cooking guide says?
A : Check your cooking guide again, to make sure you’ve followed directions exactly ; and to
see what might cause variations in cooking time. Cooking guide times and heat settings
are suggestions, to help prevent over-cooking… the most common problem in getting
used to a microwave oven.
Variations in the size, shape and weights and dimensions could require longer cooking
Time. Use your own judgement along with the cooking guide suggestions to check
whether the food has been properly cooked just as you would do with a conventional
cooker
● Q : Will the microwave oven be damaged if it operates while empty?
A :Yes. Never run it empty.
● Q : Can I operate my microwave oven without the turntable or turn the turntable over to hold
a large dish?
