Pierce foods with non-porous skins or
membranes to prevent steam build-up
and bursting. Apples, potatoes, chicken
livers, and egg yolks are examples of
items that should be pierced.
The contents of feeding bottles and
baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken
and the temperature is to be checked
before consumption, in order to avoid
burns.
Warning: Liquids or other foods must
not be heated in sealed containers
since they are liable to explode.
Warning: Microwave heating of
beverages can result in delayed
eruptive boiling; therefore care must be
taken when handling the container.
Warning: When heating liquids, e.g. soups,
sauces and beverages in your microwave
oven, overheating the liquid beyond
boiling point can occur without evidence of
bubbling. This could result in a sudden
boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent this
possibility the following steps should be
taken:
Avoid using straight-sided containers
with narrow necks.
Do not overheat.
Stir the liquid before placing the
container in the oven and again halfway
through the heating time.
After heating, allow standing in the
oven for a short time, stirring again
before carefully removing the container.
Warning: Some products such as whole
eggs and sealed containers – for example,
closed glass jars – may explode and
should not be heated in this oven.
Occasionally, poached eggs may explode
during cooking. Always pierce the yolk,
then cover and allow the standing time of
one minute before removing cover.
