   Certain foods cook best in the microwave at lower power levels.

   Different microwaves have different settings. See your microwave manual (or look it up online) to learn how to change your microwave’s power level.

   For many microwaves: enter the cook time, press the “Power” (or “Power Level”) button, and select a number between 1-10. Other microwaves may require selecting the Power Level first, and then entering the cook time.

   Microwaves list power levels in different ways. Here’s a guide to help you adjust:

   PL 10 = 100% = High (default)

   PL 9 = 90% = High

   PL 8 = 80% = Med-High

   PL 7 = 70% = Med-High

   PL 6 = 60% = Medium

   PL 5 = 50% = Medium

   PL 4 = 40% = Med-Low

   PL 3 = 30% = Med-Low

   PL 2 = 20% = Low

   PL 1 = 10% = Low

   You will know if the power level has been successfully changed if you hear periodic changes in the microwave’s tone after it begins cooking.
   

   for 22 minutes, or until rice is cooked through and tender. Once cooked, let the rice rest for 5 minutes with the lid still on.
3. Add the butter and the herbs and mix to combine. Season with salt to taste.
