Defrost * When defrosting, use only rack. The temperature and density of food varies, I would recommend that the food be checked before cooking commences.

For example fish cooks so quickly that it is sometimes better to begin cooking while still slightly frozen. The bread programme is suitable for defrosting small items such as rolls or a small loaf.
Defrosting Guide * Food to be defrosted should be in a suitable microwave proof container and place uncovered on the rack. * If necessary, shield small areas of meat or poultry with flat pieces of aluminum foil. This will prevent thin areas becoming warm during defrosting. Ensure the foil does not touch the oven walls. * Separate items like minced meat, chops, sausages and bacon as soon as possible.

Food characteristics & Microwave cooking Keeping an eye on things The recipes in the book have been formulated with great care, but your success in preparing them depends on how much attention you pay to the food as it cooks.

Food characteristics & Microwave cooking Stirring Stirring is one of the most important of all microwaving techniques. In conventional cooking, food is stirred for the purpose of blending. Microwaved food, however, is stirred in order to spread and redistribute heat. Always stir from the outside towards the centre as the outside of the food heats first.
