MEAT
Cooking Meat: General Directions
• Prepare the meat for cooking.
- Defrost completely.
- Trim off excess fat to avoid spattering.
-  Place the meat, fat side down, on a microwavable 
rack in a microwavable dish.
- Use oven cooking bag for less tender cuts of meat.
-  Arrange the meat so that thicker portions are toward 
the outside of the dish.
-  Cover the meat with waxed paper to prevent 
spattering.
• Tend the meat as it cooks.
-  Drain juices as they accumulate to reduce spattering 
and keep from overcooking the bottom of the meat.
-  Shield thin or bony portions with strips of foil to 
prevent overcooking.
•  Let the meat stand covered with foil 10-15 minutes 
after you remove it from the oven. The internal 
temperature of the meat may rise from 5-10°F during 
standing time.
The Meat Cooking Table on the next page provides 
detailed directions, Power Level, and Cooking Time 
settings for most cuts of meat.
APPETIZERS/SAUCES/SOUPS
Cooking Appetizers: Tips and Techniques 
Recommended
•  Crisp crackers, such as melba toast, shredded wheat, 
and crisp rye crackers are best for microwave use. 
Wait until party time to add the spreads. Place a 
paper towel under the crackers while they cook in the 
microwave oven to absorb extra moisture.
•  Arrange individual appetizers in a circle for even 
cooking.
• Stir dips to distribute heat and shorten cooking time.
Cooking Sauces: Tips and Techniques
•  Use a microwavable casserole or glass measuring 
cup that is at least 2 or 3 times the volume of the 
sauce.
•  Sauces made with cornstarch thicken more rapidly 
than those made with flour.
•  Cook sauces made with cornstarch or flour 
uncovered so you may stir them 2 or 3 times during 
cooking for a smooth consistency.
•  To adapt a conventional sauce or gravy recipe, reduce 
the amount of liquid slightly.
Cooking Soups: Tips and Techniques
•  Cook soups in a microwavable dish which holds 
double the volume of the recipe ingredients to 
prevent boil-over, especially if you use cream or milk 
in the soup.
•  Generally, cover microwaved soups with VENTED 
plastic wrap or a microwavable lid.
•  Avoid overcooking by using the minimum suggested 
time. Add more time, if necessary, only after checking 
the food.
•  Stirring occasionally will help blend flavors, distribute 
heat evenly, and may even shorten the cooking time.
•  When converting a conventional soup recipe to cook 
in the microwave, reduce the liquid, salt, and strong 
seasonings.
Not Recommended
•  Appetizers with a crisp coating or puff pastry are best 
done in a conventional oven with dry heat.
•  Breaded products can be warmed in the microwave 
oven but will not come out crisp.
NOTE:
•  Keep the foil at least 1 inch from the oven walls, and 
do not cover more than one-third of the meat with 
foil at any one time.
