NOT RECOMMENDED
Glass jars and bottles -- Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave. It can shatter and cause damage and injury.
Paper bags -- These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use.
Styrofoam plates and cups -- These can melt and leave unhealthy residue on food.
Plastic storage and food containers -- Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in the microwave.
Metal utensils -- These can damage your microwave. Remove all metal before cooking.
Note:
Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the microwave and microwave on
high for 30 seconds. A dish that becomes very hot should not be used.
Your microwave makes cooking easier than conventional cooking, provided you keep these considerations in mind:
STIRRING
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat evenly.
Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and heats quicker, so stir from the outside to the center.
The microwave will turn off when you open the door to stir your food.
ARRANGEMENT
Arrange evenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker, meatier parts towards the outside of
the turntable where they receive more microwave energy.
To prevent overcooking, place delicate areas, such as asparagus tips, towards the center of the turntable.
SHIELDING
Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking.
Areas that need shielding include poultry wing tips, the ends of poultry legs, and corners of square baking dishes.
Use only small amounts of aluminum foil, as larger amounts may damage your microwave.
TURNING
Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to microwave energy.
This is especially important when cooking large foods such as roasts.
