COOKING GUIDE
COOKING PRINCIPLES AND TECHNIQUES
Advantages of microwave cooking are speed 
and efficiency. For warming, heating, and
defrosting, nothing compares. Here are a few 
tips that will make microwaving easier and more 
enjoyable. 
Microwave Cooking Principles
Because microwave cooking requires only 
one-quarter to one-third the time of conventional 
cooking, cooking principles become even more 
important. 
Quantity 
In microwave cooking, the cooking time is 
dependent on the amount of food in the oven. 
If you double the recipe, plan on doubling the 
cooking time.
Density
Dense foods, such as potatoes, need more 
cooking time as they take longer for microwave 
energy to penetrate and for the heat to be  
conducted through them.
Shape and Size
Cut food into uniform shapes and sizes for 
even cooking in the microwave. When cooking 
irregular shapes (such as chicken pieces), place 
the thicker parts to the outer edge of the dish. 
Moisture, Sugar and Fat Food high in moisture, 
sugar or fat cook faster. Add a minimum of liquid 
to moisten foods. 
An excess amount of water slows cooking. 
Starting Temperature
Frozen or refrigerated foods take longer to  
microwave than food at room temperature.
Delicate Ingredients
Delicate foods such as eggs, cheese,    
mayonnaise, etc., cook very quickly, and should 
be watched carefully. 
Microwave Cooking Techniques 
Arranging:
Arrange food in a circular pattern, with denser, 
thicker items at the edge of the dish.
Piercing:
Pierce the membrane of foods such as eggs, 
oysters, snails, sausages, livers, clams and 
whole vegetables, so they do not burst.
Reheating:
Cooked food reheats extremely well by using 
a low level of microwave energy. Place denser 
foods near the outer edge of the dish when 
reheating.
Covering:
Most foods will cook and reheat better when 
covered. Pierce plastic wrap to vent steam.
Stirring:
Stirring foods help them cook more quickly  
and evenly. 
Turning Over:
To promote more even cooking, turn large, solid 
items such as roasts or baked potatoes over 
halfway through the cooking time.
Shielding:
Use small, smooth strips of aluminum foil to 
prevent corners, thin or bony areas  
 
from overcooking.
Standing Time:
Foods continue cooking even after removal from 
the oven. Standing time is necessary to allow 
foods to complete cooking/defrosting.
Converting Recipes:
Microwave recipes will likely call for less liquid 
and cooking time. 
Microwave Thermometers:
A microwave-safe thermometer can be used to 
achieve the best results. Insert the thermometer 
carefully and properly into the food. The guide 
below gives suggested thermometer readings 
for meat and poultry. Keep in mind that standing 
time is essential for most food to reach its proper 
serving temperature.
