3 What else to note... • Food comes in all shapes, sizes and textures. The quantities also vary. For these reasons the time and amount of energy needed to defrost, heat or cook will also vary. As a general rule : Double the quantity/weight = nearly *double the time * Please refer to the cooking charts. To be on the safe side, always select the shorter cooking time. Then extend the time as necessary. • Microwaves work by making the food heat itself up. Because of this, not all areas of the food
