Microwave 7 ms
Arcing is the microwave term _i)r sparks in the oven. Arcing is
caused by:
• metal or fi)il touching the side of the oven.
• tbil that is not molded to _i)od (upturned edges act like
antennas).
• metal snch as twist ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed dishes.
• recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces.
Covers hold m moisture, allow ibr more even heating and reduce
cooking time. Venting plastic wrap or covering with wax paper
allows excess steam to escape.
In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked tbods to
prevent ove_q)rowning. When microwaving, you use small strips of
tbil to shield thin parts, such as the tips of wings and legs on
poultry, which would cook betbre larger parts.
When you cook with regular ovens, _i_ods such as roasts or cakes are
allowed to stand to finish cooking or to set. Standing time is
especially important in microwave cooking. Note that a microwaved
cake is not placed on a cooling rack.
A_ter covering a dish with plastic wrap, you vent the plastic wrap by
