Microwave

Microwave utensil guide

Suitable ovenware

Heat-resistant glass, glass ceramic and

▯

earthenware:

Utility dishes, loaf dishes, pie plates, cake plates, liquid

measuring cups, casseroles and bowls without

metallic trim (e.g. Pyrex

Ware

, Emile Henry, etc.).

China:

▯

Bowls, cups, serving plates and platters without

metallic trim.

Plastic films and wraps:

▯

Plastic wrap (as a cover) - lay the plastic wrap loosely

over the dish and press it to the sides. Vent plastic

wrap by turning back one edge slightly to allow excess

steam to escape. The dish should be deep enough so

that the plastic wrap will not touch the food.

Microwave-safe plastics:

▯

Microwave-safe plastic dishes, cups, semi-rigid freezer

containers and plastic bags for short cooking times.

Use these with care because the plastic may soften

from the heat of the food.

Paper products:

▯

Paper towels, wax paper, parchment paper, paper

napkins and paper plates with no metallic trim or

design. Look for the manufacturers label for any

special instructions for use in the microwave oven.

Unsuitable ovenware

Metal utensils and cookware:

▯

Metal shields the food from microwave energy and

produces uneven cooking. Also, avoid metal skewers,

thermometers or foil trays. Metal utensils can cause

arcing, which can damage your microwave oven.

Metal decoration:

▯

Bowls, cups, serving plates and platters with metallic

trim.

Aluminum foil:

▯

Avoid large sheets of aluminum foil because they

hinder cooking and may cause harmful arcing. Use

small pieces of foil to shield poultry legs and wings.

Keep ALL aluminum foil at least 1 inch (25 mm) from

the side walls of the oven cavity and door of the

microwave.

Wood:

▯

Wooden bowls and boards will dry out and may split

or crack when you use them in the microwave oven.

Baskets made of wood will react in the same way.

Tightly covered cookware:

▯

Be sure to leave openings for steam to escape from

covered cookware. Pierce plastic pouches of

vegetables or other food items before cooking. Tightly

closed pouches may explode.

Brown paper:

▯

Avoid using brown paper bags. They absorb heat and

can burn.

Flawed or chipped cooking utensils:

▯

Any utensil that is cracked, flawed or chipped may

break in the oven.

Metal twist ties:

▯

Remove metal twist ties from plastic or paper bags.

They become hot and could cause a fire.

Ovenware test

Do not turn on the microwave unless there is food inside.

The following ovenware test is the only exception to this

rule.

Perform the following test if you are unsure whether your

ovenware is suitable for use in the microwave:

Heat the empty ovenware at maximum power for ½ to

1 minute.

Check the temperature occasionally during that time.

The ovenware should still be cold or warm to the touch.

The ovenware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or if sparks

are generated.

Microwave power levels

You can select from 10 different microwave power levels.

If you do not set a power level, the microwave will

automatically operate at the highest power level 10.

The table below provides suggested power levels for

various types of food that can be prepared in the

microwave.
