Fish
鱼
The microwave is perfect for foods that have a high water content, including fruits, vegetables, and fish. Follow your favorite recipe for steamed fish but put it in a microwave-safe bag and cook checking frequently for doneness. Just be careful of the steam as microwave cooking can be very hot. While fish is one of the better microwaveable foods, be sure never to reheat these foods in the microwave.
微波炉非常适合用来烹饪水分含量高的食物，包括水果，蔬菜和鱼。按照你喜欢的蒸鱼食谱，但是把它放在一个微波安全的袋子里，开始煮，并多次检查是否煮熟。小心蒸汽，因为微波烹饪很烫。虽然鱼是较好的微波食品之一，但请不要在微波炉中再次加热这些食物。
"Baked" apples
烤苹果
"They can be completely cooked and ready to eat in about five minutes!" Deaner says.To choose four of your favorite type of apple, core them and peel off a bit of the skin around the top and bottom of the hole. Place the apples in a microwave safe dish, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar then drizzle about 1/4 cup of liquid such as fresh lemon juice, orange juice, cider, or water over the apples. Cover with a microwave-safe lid or parchment and cook on high for four to five minutes or until apples are tender. Cool slightly and eat as is, or top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
“它们可以在五分钟内完全煮熟。” 迪纳说。选四个你喜欢的苹果，去核，去掉顶部和底部核周围的一些皮，把苹果放在微波安全的盘子里，撒上肉桂和糖，然后在苹果上洒约1/4杯的液体，如新鲜的柠檬汁，橙汁，苹果酒或水。盖上一个微波炉安全的盖子或羊皮纸，高火四到五分钟或直到苹果肉变烂。略微冷却后直接吃，或在苹果顶部浇上生奶油或香草冰淇淋。
Corn on the cob
玉米棒
"Corn on the cob is a summer favorite in our house, particularly when cooked in the microwave, so that the kitchen remains nice and cool," Deaner says. Place stripped corn on a dish or platter large enough to hold the number of ears you want to cook. Sprinkle each ear with 2 tablespoons water. Cover with plastic wrap or wax paper, cutting a couple of holes in it, and cook on high for 2 to 2½ minutes per ear.
“玉米棒是我们家夏天最喜欢吃的，特别是经过微波炉里烹饪，能使厨房保持干净和凉爽。”迪纳说。把剥下来的玉米放在一个盘子里，确保盘子大到足以盛放所有你想烹饪的玉米穗。每个玉米穗洒2汤匙水。用塑料包装或蜡纸盖住，并戳几个孔。每个玉米穗用高火烹饪两到两分半钟。
Sauces and puddings
酱汁和布丁
"Sauces like cheese sauce and blueberry sauce, as well as puddings, cook much faster in the microwave than on top of the stove, plus you don't have to stand over them and continuously stir," says Deaner. Simply place all the ingredients in a large microwaveable bowl and stir every two to three minutes, until they become as thick as you'd like, she says.
“酱汁如奶酪酱和蓝莓酱，以及布丁，在微波炉中烹饪比在炉子上更快，而且你不必站在旁边不断地搅拌。”迪纳说。只需将所有的成分放在一个大的微波炉碗里，每两到三分钟搅拌一次，直到它们变得和你想要的那样粘稠就行了，迪纳如是说。
Potato chips
薯条
"There are so many ways you can cook a potato in the microwave but my favorite is to make them into potato chips," says Stafford. "Simply use a good quality oil (my favorite is olive oil) to get a lovely flavor," she says. You can also scrub a potato, poke holes with a fork so steam can escape, and microwave on half power until soft for a perfectly cooked "baked" potato.
“用微波炉烹饪土豆的方式有很多，但我最喜欢的把它们做成薯片，”斯塔福德说。 “只需使用优质的油（我最喜欢的是橄榄油）就能做出可口的味道，”她说。你也可以洗一个马铃薯，用叉子戳洞，以便透气，然后用一半微波功率烹饪，直到土豆变软，就完美地做好了“烤”土豆。
