Then it says \u2018heat three to four minutes.\u2019  Ok, should it be three, or should it be four? Will it be undercooked at three or overcooked at four? Or does it depend on the altitude? And why I\u2019m at 4,000 feet should it be cooked three or four minutes? I simply cannot stand this indefiniteness.
