measuring cup filled with I cup of water-set the measuring
cup either in or next to the dish. Microwave

[] Not all plasticwrap is suitable for use in microwave ovens.
Checkthe package for proper use.
[] Papertowels, waxed paper and plastic wrap can be used to
cover dishes in order to retain moisture and prevent sputtering.
Besure to vent plastic wrap so steam can escape.
[] Cookwure may become hot because of heat transferred from
the heated food. Pot holders may be needed to handle the
cookware.
[]
"Bailable" cooking pouches and tightly closed plastic bugs
should be slit, pierced or vented us directed by package. If they
are not, plastic could burst during or immediately after cooking,
possiblyresulting in injury.Also,plastic storage containers
should be at least partially uncovered because they form a
tight seal.When cooking with containers tightly covered with
plasticwrap, remove covering carefully and direct steam away
from hands and face.

Plasticcookwure-Plustic cookware designedfor microwave
cooking is very useful, but should be used carefully. Even
microwave-safe plastic may not be us tolerant of overcooking
conditions usare glass or ceramic materials and may soften
or char if subjected to short periodsof overcooking. In longer
exposuresto overcooking, the food and cookwure could ignite.
Follow these guidelines.
1. Usemicrowave-safe plastics only and usethem in
strict compliance with the cookware manufacturer's
recommendations.
2. Donot microwave empty containers.
3. Donot permit children to useplastic cookware without
