MICROWAVES

Microwave energy actually penetrates food, attracted and absorbed by its water, 
fat and sugar content. 
The microwaves cause the molecules in the food to move rapidly. The rapid 
movement of these molecules creates friction and the resulting heat cooks the 
food. 

COOKING

Cookware for microwave cooking:
Cookware must allow microwave energy to pass through it for maximum
efficiency. Microwaves are reflected by metal, such as stainless steel, aluminium 
and copper, but they can penetrate through ceramic, glass, porcelain and plastic 
as well as paper and wood. So food must never be cooked in metal containers.
Food suitable for microwave cooking:
Many kinds of food are suitable for microwave cooking, including fresh or frozen 
vegetables, fruit, pasta, rice, grains, beans, fish, and meat. Sauces, custard, 
soups, steamed puddings, preserves, and chutneys can also be cooked in a 
microwave oven. Generally speaking, microwave cooking is ideal for any food 
that would normally be prepared on a hob. Melting butter or chocolate, for 
example (see the chapter with tips, techniques and hints).
Covering during cooking
To cover the food during cooking is very important, as the evaporated water rises 
as steam and contributes to cooking process. Food can be covered in different 
ways: e.g. with a ceramic plate, plastic cover or microwave suitable cling film.
Standing times
After cooking is over food the standing time is important to allow the temperature 
to even out within the food.

Cooking guide for rice and pasta

Rice : 

Use a large glass pyrex bowl with lid - rice doubles in 
volume during cooking. Cook covered. 
After the cooking time is over, stir before standing time and 
salt or add herbs and butter. 
Remark: the rice may not have absorbed all water after the 
cooking time is finished.

Pasta : 

Use a large glass pyrex bowl. Add boiling water, a pinch of 
salt and stir well. Cook uncovered. 
Stir occasionally during and after cooking. Cover during
standing time and drain thoroughly afterwards.
