Installation Cooking Guidelines

Unpacking Equipment

• Inspect equipment for damage such as dents in door or dents inside oven cavity.

• Report any dents or breakage to source of purchase immediately. Do not attempt to use oven if damaged.

• Remove all materials from oven interior.

• If oven has been stored in extremely cold area, wait a few hours before connecting power.

Equipment Placement

• Do not install equipment next to or above source of heat, such as a deep fat fryer. This could cause microwave oven to operate improperly and could shorten life of electrical parts.

The Amana Microwave Oven can make your job easier.

You’ll cook ahead and pre-portion more. You’ll also spend less time preparing special-order dishes.

To be sure of consistently good results, remember a few simple guidelines.

Radio Interference

Microwave operation may cause interference to radio, television, or similar equipment. Reduce or eliminate interference by doing the following:

• Clean door and sealing surfaces of oven according to instructions in “Care and Cleaning” section.

• Place radio, television, etc. as far as possible from oven.

• Use a properly installed antenna on radio, television, etc. to obtain stronger signal reception.

How Microwave Ovens Heat Food

All food and liquid molecules have positive and negative particles which are in constant, but slow, motion. (Positive and negatives attract and repel each other like magnets.)

In microwave cooking this molecular action is then accelerated. The instant microwaves bombard food they agitate the molecules. Agitation causes friction as molecules rub and bump into each other at a increased rate. Friction results in heat that cooks food and boils water.

Once the microwaves stop, this friction action continues by itself, eventually tapering off and returning to normal molecular action.

Microwaves penetrate food to a short depth .

As cooking begins, heat is spread by conduction to the interior portion of the food just as in conventional cooking methods.

• Do not block or obstruct oven filter. Allow access for cleaning.

• Install oven on level countertop surface.

• Place the oven in the level location of your choice with more than 85 cm height but make sure there is at least

30 cm of space on the top and 10 cm at the rear for proper ventilation.

Food Variables

Microwave cooking can be directly affected by different food variables.

The shape of foods can greatly affect the amount of cooking time. Foods that are flat and thin heat faster than foods which are chunky. For example, a casserole will cook faster in a flat dish, rather than if heaped in a small dish. Foods cut into small pieces will cook faster than large-shaped foods. Pieces should be of a uniform size and shape for more uniform cooking, or the smaller pieces will cook faster. The greatest amount of heating takes place near the food’s surface. The interior of large food items, or dense foods, is heated by the heat conducted from the outer food layer. The most uniform heating occurs in flat, doughnut-shaped foods. For best results, cook foods together which have similar sizes and shapes.

12

The quantity or volume of a food can affect the amount of cooking time. As the volume of the food is increased, the time required to cook or heat the item increases almost proportionately. If twice the amount of food is placed in the oven, it will take almost twice as long to cook. To determine the time for larger quantities, multiply the individual serving time by the increased amount, then reduce the total heating time by about 20%.

The density of foods can greatly affect the amount of cooking time. Porous foods, such as breads, cakes or pastries, will heat much more quickly than dense meats of the same size. Porous foods absorb microwaves quickly throughout. Meats absorb microwaves mostly at the exterior surface, and the interior is heated by conduction, increasing the cooking time. Meats can be cooked in a sauce, if desired. Due to the moisture content, a sauce will heat rapidly. The heat will transfer to the meat, so the meat will heat faster due to heat by conduction as well as by microwaves.

Manipulation of Foods

Sometimes recipes suggest manipulating or moving food during cooking. There are several forms of manipulation:

Stirring is required less often in microwave cooking than in conventional cooking. In conventional cooking, you use a spoon to move food up from the bottom of a pan to evenly distribute the heat. In microwave cooking, you still stir to redistribute the heat within some foods, but you need to stir from the outside of a dish toward the inside or center. If a recipe states to stir once or twice during cooking, stir at approximately even intervals. For example, in a 12-minute cooking period, if a recipe states to stir twice, stir after 4 minutes of cooking and again, after 8 minutes of cooking. However, it is not necessary to be precise. Stir only when necessary. When using lower power levels or settings, less stirring is required. Some examples of foods which may require stirring are puddings, some casseroles, some sauces, some soups, and some egg dishes. Some foods can’t be stirred. These foods are rearranged or turned.

The starting temperature of foods affects the amount of cooking time. Each temperature degree that the food item is to raise must be supplied with a definite amount of energy. Lower initial starting temperatures require more energy and more time to cook. Therefore, refrigerator temperature foods require a longer cooking time than room temperature foods. Foods already slightly warm will heat very quickly in the oven.

Some foods can’t be stirred and should be repositioned

or rearranged during cooking. Some examples include baked potatoes, cupcakes (in custard cups), and chicken pieces. Rearranging allows for more even cooking of foods. Foods which are cooked, covered or which are cooked using lower power levels, usually require little rearranging.

The moisture content of foods affects the amount of cooking time. The higher the moisture content is in a food the longer the amount of cooking time.

There are actually two types of turning. Turning is done when foods cannot be stirred. Foods which are cooked, covered or which are cooked at lower power levels usually require little turning.

The fat and sugar content of foods affects the amount of cooking time. Foods containing high fat and sugar levels heat very quickly and may reach much higher tempera-tures than foods having low fat and sugar levels.

Foods having lower fat and sugar levels require longer cooking times.

Turning foods over: Turning foods over is done to distribute heat. Meat and poultry are two types of foods which are sometimes “turned over.” Examples include roasts, turkeys and whole chickens. Small meat items such as poultry pieces may need to be turned over when in casseroles, or when in a browning skillet.

The arrangement of food within a microwave oven cavity affects the way in which the food cooks. A “round” arrangement is best. Use round utensils whenever possible. Also, arrange foods such as baked potatoes in a circle, rather than in rows, for cooking. When only one food item is being cooked, place it in the center of the oven glass shelf for cooking.

13

Microwave Utensils

CAUTION

To avoid burns, use protective gloves or pads when removing dishes from oven. Some utensils become hot while cooking.

Never use cooking containers or covers with any metal content. This includes all metal and enameled metalcore ware, foil, and metal-trimmed containers. Suitable heating containers include those made of paper products, glass, china, cloth, and wicker baskets.

Recommended

Glass/ceramic

Natural fiber cloth

Non-recycled paper

Plastic

Wood

Not Recommended

Aluminum foil

Grocery bags

Lead crystal

Newspapers

Metal

Metallic trimmed china

Cooking Hints

Cover foods for faster, more even heating. Glass lids, plastic wrap, plate covers or other paper products may be used. Do not seal. Instead, allow for steam-venting at all times.

Pierce pouches, plastic wrap covers and all foods with a thin skin or membrane, such as potatoes, squash, tomatoes, eggs, etc. This prevents an eruption in the oven and allows for expansion and/or the escape of steam.

Foods should be carefully arranged. For best results, arrange food such as vegetables or casserole-type items evenly around the edge of the plate with slightly less depth in the center. The edges of food items should not overlap or overhang the rim of the container. Cover meats with gravy or au jus and moisten all dry foods other than bread or pastry items.

Do not stack food or plated dishes in your oven.

Instead, when heating more than one serving or platters, all plates should be placed at the same level in the oven, with space between all containers.
