jXW]niT\UGGwGYWGGm SGzG\SGYWWZGG[aZZGwt Cookware Guide GB To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to penetrate the food, without being reflected or absorbed by the dish used.

jXW]niT\UGGwGYXGGm SGzG\SGYWWZGG[aZZGwt Cooking Guide Cooking Guide for rice and pasta MICROWAVES Microwave energy actually penetrates food, attracted and absorbed by its water, fat and sugar content. The microwaves cause the molecules in the food to move rapidly. The rapid movement of these molecules creates friction and the resulting heat cooks the food. Rice: Use a large glass pyrex bowl with lid – rice doubles in volume during cooking. Cook covered.
