Cooking vegetables in your microwave

• Vegetables should be washed just before cooking.

Rarely is extra water needed. Ifdense vegetables such

as potatoes, carrots and greens are being cooked, add

about ¼ cup of water.

• Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.)

will cook faster than larger vegetables.

• Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or

corn on the cob, should be arranged in a circle on the

turntable before cooking. The will cook more evenly if

turned over halfway through cooking.

• Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli

with the stem ends pointing towards the edge of the dish

and the tips toward the center.

• When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with

a lid orvented microwavable plastic wrap.

• Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash,

eggplant, etc., should have their skin pricked in several

locations before cooking to prevent them from bursting.

• For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole

vegetables halfway through the cook time.

• Most of the time, the denser the food the longer the

required standing time. For example, a baked potato

should stand for 5 minutes before serving, while a dish of

peas may be served immediately.

Cooking seafood in your microwave

Place fish on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish. Be sure to always cook fish until it flakes easily

with a fork. Use a tight cover to steam fish; a lighter cover of wax paper or paper towel provides less steaming. And be sure

not to overcook fish; check it for doneness at a minimum cooking time before cooking longer.
