The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to microwave, it allows energy to pass through the container and heat the food.

Microwave cannot penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.

Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.

Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.

Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. But be careful don’t use too much and keep a distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil and cavity. The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils. COOKWARE MICROWAVE GRILL COMBINATION Heat–Resistant Glass Yes Yes Yes Non Heat–Resistant Glass

Heat–Resistant Ceramics Yes Yes Yes Microwave–Safe Plastic Dish Yes

Aluminum Foil & Foil Containers

Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.

Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.

Turn foods over once during microwave cooking to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once.
