Tips for Using a Microwave Oven

To avoid accidents and disappointments when using your microwave, make sure to remember these tips:

● Always use a microwave-safe container, and never use plastic containers.

● When reheating your leftovers, spread the food out to create a ring-like shape; this will ensure your food gets heated evenly in no time.

● To ensure your meal ends-up adequately cooked and tender, cut the food into pieces for even heat distribution.

● Add your desired amount of salt after you reheat your food in the microwave oven, and make sure it's well mixed in for the juicy bites.

● Use round or oval bowls so your meal gets heated evenly.

● When reheating a flat piece of bread or a hard-crusted slice of pizza, adding a glass or bowl of water in the microwave oven will give off steam that will moisten it.

And now, for the most exciting part - the recipes!

3. Microwave Lemon Bars

This is the microwave recipe for summer. It's refreshing, a little sweet, a little crusty and buttery - but not too buttery though, since it has to stay light and nice to satisfy you during heatwaves.

Let's get right into it, shall we?

● Lightly grease a microwave-safe baking dish.

● For the crust: Whisk flour, sugar and lemon zest together, then stir in melted butter.

● Press the crust into your microwave-safe dish and put it in the microwave for 3 minutes, less or more, just make sure that your crust is firm, if not, microwave it for additional 30 seconds.

And now, to the filling!

● Beat sugar, lemon zest, eggs, and lemon juice together. And then, add flour, baking powder and salt. Continue beating for 2-3 minutes.

● Pour the filling over the crust and microwave for three minutes.

● Your filling should be a little jiggly, just like jelly, if it's not - don't worry and microwave for another minute.

You may wonder, "how is this supposed to refresh me during summer when it's hot right out of the microwave?"

That's because you're not going to eat it right away, but instead:

● Let your lemony mix of crust and filling cool completely before refrigerating for several hours or overnight.

● Cut into squares and dust with powdered sugar if you'd like a little extra sugar punch.

● Sprinkle lemon zest (optional).
