[. . . ] Operating Instruction and Cook Book Microwave Oven Household Use Only Model Number: NN-SD691S Please read these instructions carefully before using this product, and save this manual for future use. F00039Y40QP_cover. indd 1 2011-6-29 16:34:57 We are glad you have chosen to purchase a PANASONIC microwave oven. Before operating this oven, please read these instructions carefully and completely, and keep them for further reference. If you have only used a microwave oven for reheating and defrosting, with Panasonic’s Inverter Technology you can be reassured of excellent results when cooking a variety of foods, as the ‘soft’ penetration of microwave energy to the centre of food helps prevent over cooking on edges and surfaces. Foods can now be gently simmered without the concern of boil over. [. . . ] Place poultry breast-side down: turn over halfway through cooking. Cover with wax paper to prevent splattering. If the poultry is not cooked enough, return it to the oven and cook a few more minutes at the recommended power level. DO NOT USE A CONVENTIONAL MEAT THERMOMETER IN THE MICROWAVE OVEN. Let stand, covered with foil, 10 to 15 minutes after cooking. Standing time allows the temperature to equalize throughout the food and finishes the cooking process. If a large amount of juice accumulates in the bottom of the baking dish, occasionally drain it. If desired, reserve juices for making gravy. Less-tender birds should be cooked in liquid such as soup or broth. Use an oven cooking bag or a covered casserole. Select a covered casserole deep enough so that bird does not touch the lid. If an oven cooking bag is used, prepare according to package directions. Do not use wire twist-ties to close bag. Use only nylon tie, a piece of cotton string, or a strip cut from the open end of the bag. Multiply the weight of the poultry by the minimum recommended minutes per 500 g. After cooking, check the internal temperature of the bird with a microwave or conventional meat thermometer inserted into the muscle. If it does, the reading could be inaccurate. A thermometer cannot be accurately inserted into a small bird. To check desired cooking of a small bird, juices should be clear and the drumsticks should readily move up and down after standing time. During cooking, it may be necessary to shield legs, wings and the breast bone with foil to prevent overcooking. Wooden toothpicks can be used to hold foil in place.
