  1. Microwaves are attracted to FAT, SUGAR, AND WATER (in that order).
  2. Microwaves bounce off metal.
  3. STANDING TIME - Foods cook 20 - 25% more after you remove them from the microwave oven.

CONVERTING CONVENTIONAL OVEN RECIPE'S

    1st RULE - Cut back on the least rich liquid ingredient by 20-25% (usually this is the water).  This is because there is no dry hot air in the microwave to evaporate the extra liquid.

    2nd RULE - Cut back on spices and sauces 20-25%.  For the same reason as rule #1.

    3rd RULE - Anything with leavening (such as baking powder, baking soda, etc.) NEEDS TO REST FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES AFTER MIXING (this is very important).

    4th RULE - Keep food uniform in size or KEEP LEVEL.
