Variable power levelsadd flexibility to
microwave cooking.Thepower levelson
the microwave oven can be compared to
the surface units on arange. Powerlevel
10 or full power isthe fastest way to cook
and gives you 100% power. Eachpower
levelgives you microwave energy a
certain percent of the time. Powerlevel7 is
microwave energy 70% ofthe time. Power
level3 isenergy 30% of the time.
A high setting will cook faster but food
may need morefrequent stirring,rotating
or turning over.Mostcooking will be done
on power level10.A lower setting will cook
more evenly and need lessstirring or
rotating of the food.
Somefoods may hove better flavor,texture
or appearance if one of the lower settings
isused.Usea lower power levelwhen
cooking foods that hove atendency to boil
over,such as scolloped potatoes.
Restperiods(whenthe microwave energy
cycles off) give time for the food to
"equalize"or transfer heat to the insideof
the food. An example of this isshown with
power level3-the defrost cycle. If
microwave energy did not cycle off,the
outside of the food would cook beforethe
insidewas defrosted.
