food characteristicscooking Techniques
bone and fatBoth bone and fat affect cookÁb
ing. Bones may cause irreguÁb
lar cooking. Meat next to the
tips of bones may overcook
while meat positioned under a large bone,
such as a ham bone, may be underÁb
cooked. Large amounts of fat absorb
microwave energy and the meat next to
these areas may overcook.
DensityPorous, airy foods such as
breads, cakes or rolls take
less time to cook than
heavy, dense foods such as
potatoes and roasts. When
reheating donuts or other
foods with different centers be very careÁb
ful. Certain foods have centers made with
sugar, water, or fat and these centers
attract microwaves (For example, jelly
donuts). When a jelly donut is heated, the
jelly can become extremely hot while the
exterior remains warm to the touch. This
could result in a burn if the food is not
allowed to cool properly in the center.
quantityTwo potatoes take longer to cook
than one potato. As the quantity of
the food decreases so does the
cooking time. Overcooking will
cause the moisture content in the
food to decrease and a fire could result.
Never leave microwave unattended while
in use.
ShapeUniform sizes heat more
evenly. The thin end of a
drumstick will cook more
quickly than the meaty
end. To compensate for irregular shapes, place thin parts toward the center of thedish and thick pieces toward the edge.
SizeThin pieces cook more
quickly than thick pieces.
Starting TemperatureFoods that are at room temperature
take less time to cook than if they
are chilled, refrigerated, or frozen.
piercingFoods with skins or memÁb
branes must be pierced
scored or have a strip of
skin peeled before cookÁb
ing to allow steam to
escape. Pierce clams,
oysters, chicken livers, whole potatoes
and whole vegetables. Whole apples or
new potatoes should have a ÁfÁbinch strip
of skin peeled before cooking. Score
sausages and frankfurters. Do not
Cook/Reheat whole eggs with or without
the shell. Steam build up in whole eggs
may cause them to explode, and possibly
damage the oven or cause injury.
Reheating SLICED hardÁbboiled eggs and
cooking SCRAMBLED eggs is safe.
browningFoods will not have the
same brown appearance as
conventionally cooked foods
or those foods which are
cooked utilizing a browning
feature. Meats and poultry
may be coated with browning sauce,
Worcestershire sauce, barbecue sauce or
shakeÁbon browning sauce. To use, comÁb
bine browning sauce with melted butter or
margarine and brush on before cooking. 
For quick breads or muffins, brown sugar
can be used in the recipe in place of
granulated sugar, or the surface can be
sprinkled with dark spices before baking.
SpacingIndividual foods, such as
baked potatoes, cupcakes
and appetizers, will cook more
evenly if placed in the oven
equal distances apart. When
possible, arrange foods in a circular pattern.

cooking Techniques(continue\f)
coveringAs with conventional cooking, moisture
evaporates during microwave cooking.
Casserole lids or plastic wrap are used for a
tighter seal. When using plastic wrap, vent
the plastic wrap by folding back part of the
plastic wrap from the edge of the dish to
allow steam to escape. Loosen or remove
plastic wrap as recipe directs for stand time.
When removing plastic wrap covers, as well
as any glass lids, be careful to remove them
away from you to avoid steam burns.
Various degrees of moisture retention are
also obtained by using wax paper or paper
towels. 
ShieldingThin areas of meat and poultry cook more
quickly than meaty portions. To prevent
overcooking, these thin areas can be shieldÁb
ed with strips of aluminum foil. Wooden
toothpicks may be used to hold the foil in
place.
caUTIOn is to be exercised when
using foil. Arcing can occur if foil is too close
to oven wall or door and damage to your
oven will result.
cooking timeA range of cooking time is given in each
recipe. The time range compensates for the
uncontrollable differences in food shapes,
starting temperature, and regional preferÁb
ences. Always cook food for the minimum
cooking time given in a recipe and check for
doneness. If the food is undercooked, conÁb
tinue cooking. It is easier to add time to an
undercooked product. Once the food is
overcooked, nothing can be done.
StirringStirring is usually necessary during
microwave cooking. Always bring the
cooked outside edges toward the center and the less cooked center portions toward
the outside of the dish.
rearrangingRearrange small items such as chicken
pieces, shrimp, hamburger patties or pork
chops. Rearrange pieces from the edge to
the center and pieces from the center to the
edge of the dish.
TurningIt is not possible to stir some foods to disÁb
tribute the heat evenly. At times, microwave
energy will concentrate in one area of the
food. To help insure even cooking, these
food need to be turned. Turn over large
foods, such as roasts or turkeys, halfway
through cooking.
Stand TimeMost foods will continue to cook by conducÁb
tion after the microwave oven is turned off.
In meat cookery, the internal temperature
will rise 5 °F to Áf5 °F (3 °C to 8 °C), if
allowed to stand, tented with foil, for Áf0 to
Áf5 minutes. Casseroles and vegetables
need a shorter amount of standing time, but
this standing time is necessary to allow
foods to complete cooking to the center
without overcooking on the edges.
Test for DonenessThe same tests for doneness used in conÁb
ventional cooking may be used for
microwave cooking. Meat is done when
forkÁbtender or splits at fibers. Chicken is
done when juices are clear yellow and
drumstick moves freely. Fish is done when it
flakes and is opaque. Cake is done when a
toothpick or cake tester is inserted and
comes out clean.
abOUT fOOD SafeTy anD
cOOKIng TemperaTUre
Check foods to see that they are cooked to
the United States Department of
Agriculture’s recommended temperatures.
Temp fOOD
Áf60 °F ...for fresh pork, ground meat, 
boneless white poultry, fish, 
seafood, egg dishes and

carryout “fresh” food.
Áf70 °F ...white meat of poultry.
Áf80 °F ...dark meat of poultry.
To test for doneness, insert a meat therÁb
mometer in a thick or dense area away from
fat or bone. NEVER leave the thermometer
in the food during cooking, unless it is
approved for microwave oven use.
