THE PRINCIPLES OF MICROWAVE COOKING
Microwaves are a form of high frequency radio waves similar to those used by a radio including AM,
FM and CB. Electricity is converted into microwave energy by the magnetron tube. From the
magnetron tube, microwave energy is transmitted to the oven where it is reflected, transmitted and
absorbed by the food.
Reflection: Microwaves are reflected by metal just as a ball is bounced off of a wall. For this reason, metal
utensils are not suitable for use in the microwave. A combination of stationary interior walls and a rotating
metal turntable or stirrer fan helps assure that the microwaves are well distributed within the oven cavity to
produce even cooking.
Transmission: Microwaves pass through some materials such as paper, glass and plastic much like sunlight
shining through a window. Because these substances do not absorb or reflect the microwave energy, they are
ideal materials for microwave oven cooking containers.
Absorption: During cooking, microwaves will be absorbed by food. They penetrate to a depth of about 3/4 to
1 1/2 inches. Microwave energy activates the molecules in the food (especially water, fat and sugar), and heat
is produced. If you vigorously rub your hands together, you will feel heat produced by friction. The internal
cooking of larger foods is done by conduction as the heat which is produced by friction is conducted to the
middle of the food. Foods also continue to cook by conduction during standing time.
FOOD CHARACTERISTICS
Quantity: The amount of food placed in a microwave oven has a direct effect on the cooking time. Small
amounts of food or liquid require less cooking time than larger amounts of the same substance. As quantity
increases, concentration decreases.
Size: Small pieces cook faster than large ones. To speed cooking, cut pieces smaller than two inches (5 cm),
so microwaves can penetrate to the middle from all sides. Pieces which are similar in size and shape cook
more evenly.
Shape: Many foods are uneven, like a chicken, ribs or broccoli. The thin parts will cook faster than the thick
parts, while uniformly thick foods cook evenly. To compensate for irregular shapes, place thin pieces toward
the center of the dish and thicker pieces toward the edge of the dish.
Starting Temperature: Frozen or refrigerated foods take longer to cook than foods at room temperature.
Bone and Fat: Because bones conduct heat, the side of the meat the bone is on will cook first, while boneless
cuts cook slower but more evenly. Fat attracts microwaves. The middle of these foods is cooked by heat
conduction.
Moisture Content: Microwaves are attracted by moisture. Naturally moist foods absorb microwaves better
than dry ones. Add a minimum of liquid to moist foods, as excess water slows cooking.
Density: The density of food determines how easilythe microwaves can penetrate and how quickly it will cook.
Porous foods, like chopped beef or mashed potatoes, microwave faster than dense ones like steak or whole
potatoes.
Piercing: Steam builds up pressure in foods which are tightly covered by askin or membrane.Pierce potatoes,
egg yolks and chicken livers to prevent bursting.
MICROWAVE TECHNIQUES
Stirring: Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking to equalize heat and speed
microwaving. Foodswillnot burn or stick,sothere’snoneedto stirconstantly as you doinconventionalcooking.
Arrangement: Arrange foods with thin or delicate ends, like drumsticks or asparagus spears, with the thick or
tougher portionstotheoutsideofthedish.Theparts whichneedmorecooking willreceivemoreenergy,sofood
will microwave evenly.
Spacing: Individual foods,suchas baked potatoesandcupcakeswillcook more evenlyif placed in theovenan
equal distanceapart.When possible, arrange foods inacircularpattern. Similarly, whenplacingfoods in abaking
dish, arrange around the outside of the dish, not lined up next to each other. Food should not be stacked on
top of each other.
Rearrangement: Rearrange overlapping areas, like tails of long fish fillets,from top to bottom, and closelypacked
pieces, like meatballs, from the outside to the center of the dish.
Standing Time: Standing time is especially important in microwave cooking. Microwave energy creates heat in
the outer layersofthe food. As a result of normalconduction, the food continues to cook for a fewminutes after
removal from the oven. Letting roasts, large whole vegetables, casseroles and cakes stand to finish cooking
allows the middles to cook completely without overcooking, drying or toughening the outsides.
Covering: Covering speeds cooking time, retains moisture, tenderizes, insures even cooking and prevents

spattering. Casserole lids or plastic wrap are used for a tighter seal. Vent plastic by turning back one edge at the
side of dish to form a narrow slot where excess steam can escape. Various degrees of moisture retention are
also obtained by using wax paper or microwave-safe paper towels.
Browning: Microwave energy cooks somefoods so quickly that the fats andsugars within the food do not have
timeto caramelize and give a "browned"appearance. Browning agents do not affect the quality of microwaved
foods,butcan add color and flavor. For meats and poultry, use bouquet sauce diluted with water or melted butter,
soy, Worcestershire, barbecue or steak sauce, a sprinkling of paprika or dry gravy mix; jelly glaze or crumb
coating. Frosting and topping finish cakes and breads. Top casseroles at the end of microwaving with grated
cheese or crumbs.
HOT SNACKS AND APPETIZERS
Hot appetizers can be prepared very quickly in the microwave oven.
Many appetizers may be cooked on the serving platter, provided the platter does not have metal trim. A time
saving tip – prepare these foods ahead of time, refrigerate or freeze, and refresh in the oven at serving time.
A plate of appetizers will take only seconds to refresh.
Cheese melts very rapidly and will toughen if overcooked, so watch foods combined with cheese closely so
that overcooking will not occur. As soon as cheese starts to bubble, cooking is completed.
Appetizers that have a crisp pastry exterior are best prepared in a conventional oven.
To prepare appetizers wrapped in bacon, it will be necessary to precook the bacon and then wrap around the
foods. Oysters wrapped in bacon are easier to prepare in the broiler of your conventional oven.
Seafoodmixturescan be prepared in serving shells as microwave energywill pass through the seafood shells
without heating. Aluminum foil should not be used for shells.
If spreads are placed on crackers, care should be taken not to overcook as moisture from the food will cause
crackers to become soggy. Crackers used for spreads should be very dry and crisp. This helps avoid
sogginess. Heat only until spread is at serving temperature.
The time required to heat all appetizers will depend on the amount of food, and the number and the type of
dish selected. Remember the food will become very hot even if the dish is cool. Cheese mixtures retain heat
longer when heated with microwave energy.
SEAFOOD
Guide for Cooking Seafood
Microwaving is one of the easiest and most efficient ways of preparing fish and seafood, which stay delicate
and tender with quick, moist cooking. Overcooking dries out and toughens seafood, so you should check it
after the minimum time. If thick pieces like fish steaks or lobster tails are done on the outside, but still slightly
translucent in the middle, let them stand for a few minutes; internal heat will complete the cooking.

Eggs in Shells and hard boiled eggs can burst.
Pancakes do not crust, but they reheat well. Fully-prepared, frozen pancakes are available for
microwaving.
Deep Fat Frying can cause burns.

MEATS
Guide for Cooking Meats
Roasts,chops, hamburgers and small cuts of tendermeat cook beautifullyin the microwave oven. Most roasts
can be cooked rare, medium rare or even well done in less than one hour. Less tender cuts of meat such as
pot roast can be simmered fork-tender in a sauce or gravy. Tough cuts that require slow cooking will do better
in a conventional oven. A large piece of meat, especially if the shape is uneven, should be turned over
occasionally for uniform roasting.

Guide for Cooking Poultry
Chicken is one of the most popular foods and microwaving chicken is one of the best uses of your microwave
oven. Chicken stays juicy and tender in the microwave oven. However, juiciness prevents browning because
chicken crisps and browns only when the skin dries out enough to change color. Standing time is important,
because it allows the interior to finish cooking without toughening the delicate breast meat.
