Microwave Utensil Guide
Use Do Not Use
OVENPROOF GLASS:
(treated for high intensity heat):
Utility dishes, loaf dishes, pie plates, cake plates,
liquid measuring cups, casseroles and bowls
without metallic trim.
CHINA:
Bowls, cups, serving plates and platters without
metallic trim.
PLASTIC:
Plastic wrap (as a cover)--Iay 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. As the food heats, it may melt
the plastic wrap wherever the wrap touches
the food. Use plastic dishes, cups, semirigid
freezer containers and plastic bags only
for short cooking times. Use these with care
because the plastic may soften from the heat
of the food.
PAPER:
Papertowels, waxed paper,paper napkins
and paper plates with no metallic trim or
design. Look for the manufacturer's label
for use in the microwave oven.
NETAL UTENSILS:
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:
Metal-trimmed or metal-banded dinnerware, casserole dishes, etc.
The metal trim interferes with normal cooking and may damage
the oven.
ALUNINUN 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
from the side walls and door of the oven.
WOOD:
Wooden bowls and boards will dry out and may split or crack
when you use them in the microwave oven. Baskets react
in the same wag.
TIGHTLY COVERED UTENSILS:
Be sure to leave openings for steam to escape from covered utensils.
Pierce plastic pouches of vegetables or other food items before
cooking. Tightly closed pouches could explode.
BROWNPAPER:
Avoid using brown paper bags.
They absorb too much heat and could burn.
FLAWED OR CHIPPED 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.
Do not use recycled paper products in the microwave oven.
They may contain impurities that cause sparks to occur.
