cookware designed for microwave
cooking is very useful, but
shotid
be used carefully. Even
microwave-safe plastic may not
be as tolerant of overcooking
conditions as are glass or ceramic
materials and

overcooking. In longer exposures
to overcooking, the

cookware could ignite. For
these
reasons: 1) Use microwave-safe
plastics only and use them
in
strict
compliance with the cookware
manufacturer’s
recommendations+
2) Do not subject empty
cookware
to microwaving. 3) Do
not
permit
children to use plastic cookware
without complete supervision,
