A convenience food product comprising a microwavable pasta packaged in a container which facilitates even cooking in a microwave oven. The product can further comprise an improved hydratable sauce in the form of granules which tend not to form clumps upon the addition of water or milk and requires minimal stirring.

Microwavable pasta in a bowl

A container for microwave cooking having geometric features which improve the efficiency and uniformity of microwave cooking of food products containing liquids and which enhance boiling uniformity while preventing boilover of the contents. The container has a bottom portion and a side panel wherein the bottom portion contains a central segment in the shape of a section of a sphere. The side panel is tapered outwardly as it extends from the bottom portion to an end opening. Sharp corners are avoided within the container. As the result of the geometry of the container, a more uniform distribution of heat within the contents of the container is attained during cooking and the combination of uniform heating, the lack of sharp corners and the tapered side panel causes boiling of the contents without bumping, thereby minimizing the risk of boil over.
