Term Definition

Arcing Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is

caused by:

■ metal or foil touching the side of the oven.

■ foil that is not molded to food (upturned edges act like

antennas).

■ metal such os twist-ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed dishes.

■ recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces.

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

cooking time. Venting plastic wrap or covering with wax paper

allows excess steam to escape.

Shieiding 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 ports, such os the tips of wings and legs on

poultry, which would cook before larger ports.

Standing Time When you cook with regular ovens, foods such os roosts or cokes

ore allowed to stand to finish cooking or to set. Standing time is

especially important in microwave cooking. Note that a

microwaved coke is not placed on a cooling rock.

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

turning bock one corner so excess steam con escape.
