k;hriable power levels add flexibili W to microwave
cooking. The power levels on the microwave oven
can be compared to the surfhce units on a rangy.
Each power level gives you microwave energy a certain
percent of the time. Power level/is microwaxv energy
70% of the tim e. Power level 3 is energy 30% of the
time. Most cooking will be done on High (power level 10)
which gives you 100% power: Powerleve110 will cook
thsmr l)ut food may need more fl'equent stirring,
rotating or turning oven A lower setting will cook
more evenly and need less stirring or rotating of the
%od. Some %ods m W have better flavor; text/Ire or
appearance if one of the lower setting:s is used. Use
a lower power level when cooking leeds that have
a tendency to boil ovcC such as scalloped potatoes.
Rest periods (when the microwave energy c)vles tit)
give time tor the toed to "equalize" or tF,msicr heat to
the inside of the toed. 2hi example of this is shown with
power level 3--the deii'ost cycle. If microwa',_ energy
did not cyvle eli; the outside of the toed would cook
beiore the inside was defl'osted.
