1x536 unit 2 how to boil water in the microwave
Editor's Notes
- Hello Class,Welcome to Cooking 101. I am Ms. Murphy and I will be your instructor for this course. A little bit about me, I first became interested in cooking after watching iron chef. Like most I did not have a clue how to begin, but over time I and with much research I have developed some techniques and skills that I would like to share with you and I think you will find it to be refreshing. Let’s get started!
- In this lesson you will learn how to safely boil water in the microwave.
- 1. Cup2. Water3. Microwave4. Timer
- Step 1.IMAGEPut water in microwave safe cup/bowl/container
- Step 2.Put non-metallic object in water to help boiling (toothpick, wooden spoon etc.)
- Step 3.Put your container with the water in the microwave
- Step 4.Heat the container with the water in small increments. I will be heating in 2 minute increments at first then lowering to 1 minute to reach my desired boiling level.Important Note: Water boils at different times depending on the following: the type of microwave, the size and speed of the microwave, the container you chose for the microwave, what altitude you are above sea level (the higher you are the lower the temperature) and where the container in placed within the microwave. Water boils at 212 degrees Farenhight/100 degrees Celsius. For absolute accuracy you can use a thermometer.
