A recent study by Gertrude Armbruster, an associate pro fessor of nutritional science, shows that shortened cooking time saves more nutrients from loss or damage than such con- venticnal cooking methods as baking and boiling. “We started talking about (doing) this study in the mid’VOs when microwave use was ju^t be ginning to explode,” Armbrus ter said. “Most of the earlier micro- wave cooking studies had been done in the ‘50s and ‘60s when microwave cooking was really in the experimental stage.” She said questions about mic rowave cooking and nutrient re tention often have come from consumers as microwave oven usage increases. Her study found food micro- waved in containers or paper bags cooked even faster than the same things microwaved with out covers. “An enclosure helps insulate food and prevent heat loss in the oven cavity,” she said. “Covers or containers enclose the steam, which reduces cooking time even further and also ensures greater bacterial destruction.” (Covers should be vented, however, to prevent pressure from building up and exploding the food.)
