R-33STD English 10/12/2002 15:19 Page B Dear Customer, Congratulations on acquiring your new microwave oven, which from now on will make your kitchen chores considerably easier. You will be pleasantly surprised by the kinds of things you can do with a microwave. Not only can you use it for rapid defrosting or heating up of food, you can also prepare whole meals. [. . . ] · When boiling liquids such as water, coffee, tea or milk, place a glass stirrer in the container. · If possible, stir large quantities from time to time, to ensure that the temperature is evenly distributed. The heating time for food stored in a refrigerator should be increased slightly. · After heating allow the food to stand for 1-2 minutes, so that the temperature inside the food can be evenly distributed (standing time). · The times given are guidelines which can be varied according to the initial temperature, weight, water content, fat content or the result which you want to achieve. DEFROSTING Your microwave is ideal for thawing. Thawing times are usually considerably shorter than in traditional methods. Take the frozen item out of its packaging and place on a plate for thawing. TURNING/STIRRING Almost all foods have to be turned or stirred from time to time. As early as possible, separate parts which are stuck together and re-arrange them. BOXES AND CONTAINERS Boxes and containers suitable for microwaves are particularly good for thawing and heating food, since they can withstand temperatures in a deep freeze (down to approx. You can therefore use the same container to freeze, thaw, heat and even cook the food, without having to transfer it. SMALL AMOUNTS Thaw more quickly and evenly than large ones. By doing so you will be able to prepare whole menus quickly and easily. FOODS REQUIRING CAREFUL HANDLING Foods such as gateaux, cream, cheese and bread should only be partially thawed and then left to thaw completely at room temperature. By doing so you will avoid the outer areas becoming too hot whilst the inside is still frozen. COVERING Cover thin parts with small strips of aluminium foil before thawing. Thawed or warm parts should likewise be covered with aluminium strips during thawing. This stops the thin parts becoming too hot while thicker parts are still frozen. STANDING TIME This is particularly important after thawing food, as the thawing process continues during this period. In the thawing table you will find the standing times for various foods. Thick, dense foods require a longer standing time than thinner foods or foods of a porous nature. If the food has not thawed sufficiently, you may continue thawing it in the microwave or lengthen the standing time accordingly. At the end of the standing time you should process the food as soon as possible and not re-freeze it. CORRECT SETTING It is better to choose a setting which is too low rather than one which is too high. If the microwave setting is too high, the surface of the food will already have begun to cook while the inside is still frozen. 27 ENGLISH R-33STD English 10/12/2002 15:19 Page 28 COOKING FRESH VEGETABLES · When buying vegetables, try to ensure that, as far as possible, they are of similar size. This is particularly important when you want to cook the vegetables whole (e. g. · Wash the vegetables before preparing them, clean them and only then weigh the required quantity for the recipe and chop them up. · Season them as you would normally, but as a rule only add salt after cooking. onions or boiled potatoes, can be cooked in microwave foil without adding water.
