Definition
Arcing is the microwave tern/fin" spar!<_ in the oven. Arcing is caused by:
• metal or ti)il touching the side of the oven.
• ti)il that is not molded to ti)ocl (upturned edges act like antennas).
• metal such as twist-ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed dishes.
• recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces.
Covei_ hold in moisture, allow for more even heating and reduce cooking time. Venting plastic wrap or
covering with wax paper allo_vs excess steam to escape.
In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked ti)o(ls to prevent ove_q)rowning. _]_en microwaving,
you use small strips of foil to shield thin parts, such as the tips _ffwings and legs on poultry, which would
cook before larger parts.
When you cook with regular ovens, toods such as roasts or cakes are allowed to stand to finish cooking or
to set. Standing time is especially important in microwave cooking. Note that a microwaved cake is not
placed on a cooling rack.
_Mter covering a dish with plastic wrap, you vent the plastic wrap by turning back one corner so excess
steaII/ C_lll escape.
