VEGETABLES
Vegetables are favorite foods when cooked in the
microwave. Because they cook for a shorter time and
require less water than conventional cooking,
vegetables cooked by microwave energy retain more
vitamins than when cooked by other methods.
To cook better in the microwave, vegetables should be
cut into evenly sized pieces. Baked potatoes, squash,
or vegetables with skins can be pierced with a fork and
arranged in a circle for the best cooking results.
Uneven vegetables such as asparagus or broccoli, can
be arranged in the dish alternating thick and thin ends.
Stirring, rearranging, turning over and rotating are
effective techniques to maximize the way microwave
energy cooks vegetables.
Consult the “COOKING FRESH VEGETABLES” chart
on page 20 of this cookbook for preparation and stand
time suggestions and for directions to use the
automatic FRESH VEGETABLE pad. See this chart
for suggested times for 4 ounce single serving of
vegetables.
Use care in removing lid to prevent steam burn.
Standing time is an important element in successful
cooking because additional cooking will take place
then. Make a decision about desired doneness after
the standing time then add more time, if needed.
