When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with
a lid or vented microwavable plastic wrap.
Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash,
eggplant, etc., should have their skins pierced in several
spots before cooking to prevent them from bursting.
For a more even cooking result, stir or rearrange whole
vegetables halfway through the cook time.
Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing
time. (The standing time refers to the time necessary for
dense, large foods and vegetables to finish cooking after
they come out of the oven.) A baked potato can stand on
the counter for five minutes before cooking is completed,
while a dish of peas can be served immediately.
