TIP:
|
|
Microwave cooking is so fast that often a casserole that can not be stirred to redistribute the heat evenly will seem done on the outside. By allowing some standing time before the last 2 minutes of cooking, time is allowed for the heat to reach the center of the casserole. This method should be used for all casseroles that cannot, for whatever reason, be stirred. "AI dente" means that when bitten into there is a slight resistance to the teeth.
