Microwave terms.

Term Definition

Arcing Arcing is the microwave term of rsparks inthe oven. Arcing is cause by:

• metal or foil touching the side of hte oven.

• foil that is not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennasl.

• metal such as twist-ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed dishes.

• recycled paper towls containing small metal pieces.

Covering Covers hold in moisture, allow for more even heating and reduce cooking time.

Venting plastic warp or covering with wax paper allows excess steam to escape.

Shielding In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked foods to prevent over-

browning. When microwaving, you use small strips of foil to shield thin parts,

such as the tips of wings and legs on pountry, which would cook before larger

parts.

Standing Time When you cook with regular ovens, foods such as roasts or cakes are allowed to

stand to finish cooking or to set. Standing time is especially important in micro-

wave cooking. Note that a microwaved cake is not placed on a cooling rack.

Venting After covering a dish with plastic wrap, you vent the plastic wrap by turning back

one corner so excess steam can escape.
