SUITABLE COOKWARE TO USE IN
COMBINATION MICROWAVES
1. The ideal material for a microwave utensil is a microwave safe transparent
plastic dish.
2. Microwaves cannot pass through metal. Metallic utensils, dishes with metallic
trim and aluminium foil should not be used.
3. Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking as they may
contain small metal fragments which can cause sparks and/or res.
4. Round/oval dishes rather than square dishes are recommended, as food in
the corners tends to overcook.
