COOKING TIPS

• The following factors may affect the cooking result.

Food arrangement

• Place thicker areas towards the outside of the dish, and the thinner part towards the center, and spread it evenly. Do not overlap if possible.
• Cooking time length
• Start cooking with a short time setting, evaluate it after it times out, and extend it according to the actual need. Overcooking may result in smoke and burns.

Cooking food evenly

• Food such as chicken, hamburger, or steak should be turned once during cooking.
• Depending on the type of food, if applicable, stir it from outside to center of the dish once or twice during cooking

Allow standing time

• After cooking times out, leave the food in the oven for an adequate length of time, this allows it to complete its cooking cycle and cool it down in a gradual manner

Whether the food is done

• Color and hardness of food help to determine if it is done, these include
• Steam coming out from all parts of food, not just the edge
• Joints of poultry can be moved easily
• Pork or poultry shows no signs of blood
• Fish is opaque and can be sliced easily with a fork

Browning dish

• When using a browning dish or self-heating container, always place a heat-resistant insulator such as a porcelain plate under it to prevent damage to the turntable and rotating ring.

Microwave-safe plastic wrap

• When cooking food with high-fat content, do not allow the plastic wrap to come into contact with food as it may melt

Microwave-safe plastic cookware

• Some microwave-safe plastic cookware might not be suitable for cooking foods with high fat and sugar content. Also, the preheating time specified in the dish instruction manual must not be exceeded
