mit
proper
canning.
Improperly
canned
food
may
spoil and be dangerous
to
consume.
COOKING TIMES
given
in
the cooking
gurde
are APPROXIMATE. Factors
that
may
affect
cooking are: starting
temperature,
altitude,
volume)
srze and shape
of
foods
and uten-
sils
used.
As
you become
familiar with
the
oven,
you
will
be able to
a{iust
for
these
factors.
It
is
betterto UNDERCOOK
RATHER THAN
OVERCOOK foods.
If
food
is
undercooked,
it
can always
be
returned
to
the
oven
for
further
cooking.
If
food
is
overcooked,
nothing
c€ur be done.
Always start
with
minimum
cooking times.
SMALL
QUANTITIES
of
food
or
foods
with
LOW MOISTTIRE
content can
burn,
d.y
out
or
catch on
fire if
cooked
too
long.
DO NOT
boil eggs
in
their
shell.
Pressure
may
build
up and the
eggs
will
explode.
Potatoes,
apples,
egg
yolks,
whole acorn
sQuash
and sausage are examples of
food
with
NONPOROUS
SKINS.
These must be
pierced
before cookitrg
to prevent bursting.
POPCORN
must be popped
in a microwave
corn proper.
Microwave
popped corn
produces
a
lower yield
than
conventional
popping.
Do
not
pop
popcorn
unless
popped
in
a
microwave
approved popcorn
utensil or unless
it's
commercially
packaged
and
recommended
especially
for micro-
wave
ovens.
Do
not
use oil
