13C OOKING I NSTRUCTIONSGuide for Cooking Seafood in Your Microwave• Cook fish until it flakes easily with a fork.• Place fish on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish.• Use a tight cover to steam fish. A lighter cover of wax paper or paper towelprovides less steaming.• Do not overcook fish; check it at minimum cooking time.Guide for Cooking Eggs in Your Microwave• Never cook eggs in the shell, and never warm hard-cooked eggs in the shell;they can explode.• Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting.• Cook eggs just until set; they become tough if overcooked.Guide for Cooking Vegetables in Your Microwave• Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Often, no extra water isneeded. If dense vegetables such as potatoes, carrots and green beans arebeing cooked, add about ¼ cup water.• Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook faster thanlarger ones.• Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or corn on the cob,should be arranged in a circle on the turntable before cooking. They will cookmore evenly if turned over after half the cooking time.• Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem endspointing towards the edge of the dish and the tips toward the center.• When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or ventedmicrowavable plastic wrap.• Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash, eggplant, etc., shouldhave their skin pricked in several spots before cooking to prevent them frombursting.• For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway throughthe cooking time.• Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing time. (Standing timerefers to the time necessary for dense, large foods and vegetables to finishcooking after they come out of the oven.) A baked potato can stand on thecounter for five minutes before cooking is completed, while a dish of peascan be served immediately.Food Cook Time /Power Level DirectionsSteaksUp to 1.5lbs.Cooking Time:6-8 min. / lb.Power Level: Medium-High(70).Arrange steaks on roasting rack withmeaty portions towards the outsideof rack.
