Cheese and Eggs
1.Eggs may be prepared many ways in the microwave oven. Always
pierce whole yolks before microwaving to prevent bursting.
2. Never cook eggs in the shell. Do not reheat hard cooked eggs in
the shell. They will explode.
3. Cook eggs just until set. They are delicate and can toughen if
overcooked.

Fish and Seafood
1. Fish is done when it flakes easily when tested with a fork. Center
may still be slightly translucent, but will continue cooking as fish
stands a few minutes after cooking.
2. Cook fish with or without sauce. A tight cover steams fish. Use a
lighter cover of wax paper or paper towel for less steaming.
3. Do not overcook fish. Check at minimum time.
