Per ever y 500 gr . of greens or vegetables add about 5 teaspoons of water Greens and vegetables must always be covered with clear-sheet.
19 SOUPS AND RICE • Soups or broth usually require a smaller amount of liquid because the evaporation in microwave ovens is rather limited. Because it is a dehydrating agent, salt must be added only when the cooking is finished or during the standing time.
