1.
Microwave cannot penetrate metal. Only use
utensils that are suitable for use in
microwave ovens. Metallic containers for
food and beverages are not allowed during
microwave cooking. This requirement is not
applicable if the manufacturer specifies size
and shape of metallic containers suitable for
microwave cooking
.
2.
Microwave cannot penetrate metal, so
metal utensils or dishes with metallic
trim should not be used.
3.
Do not use recycled paper products
when microwave cooking, as they may
contain small metal fragments which
may cause
sparks and/or fires.
4.
Round /oval dishes rather than
square/oblong ones are recommend, as
food in corners tends to overcook.
5.
Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used
to prevent overcooking of exposed areas.
But be careful don’t use too much and keep
a distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil
and cavity.
The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils.
