Hints and Tips
Barbecued Food
For quick outdoor barbecuing, microwave meats for three to four minutes (per pound) at 100% power in your microwave. Immediately place on the grill to finish.
Usual grill time will be reduced by at least half. Remember to place food onto the grill immediately.
Peeling Onions
To peel onions more easily, place them in a covered container and microwave for one to two minutes at 100% power.
Croutons
Dry or crisp older bread for croutons. Microwave four cups for five to seven minutes at 100% power, stirring several times.
Easy Scoop Ice-cream
To make ice cream easier to scoop, soften by microwaving for 30 seconds at 100% power.
Soften Refrigerated Butter or Margerine
Soften refrigerated butter or margarine by heating for 30 seconds at 100% power. To melt the butter; heat for one minute at 100% power. Clarify butter by melting
six to eight ounces in a two-cup microwave-safe container on low power (30%) for two to three minutes or until completely melted. Let stand for three to four minutes,
remove the foam and slowly pour off the yellow oil or clarified butter. Remember higher wattage ovens may need shorter cooking time.
