If you just heat the eel in the microwave, the (eel) skin will turn/become/stay rubbery

The Japanese is indicating that it will "stay" rubbery. If it wasn't already rubbery, the speaker wouldn't use まま。

@yume_kanaeshimono thank you very much. can I also say remain rubbery?
- English (US)
@kunihiro_iwata Yes, it means the same as “stay.” I didn’t see まま in the original sentence. Sorry about that!

>Can I say "remain rubbery"?
Yes, especially in writing. Or, if you're speaking and want to sound a bit more intellectual than normal.

Yes. The skin was already rubbery. So can I say “ Just by warming it, the skin remains rubbery.”?
- English (US)
"Just by warming it" doesn't fit as well.
I might alternatively say "If all you do is microwave it"
(I'm using "microwave" as a verb.)
