HOW TO USE THE MICROWAVE OVEN
1. Carefully spread the food. Place the thickest pieces closer to the edges
of the plate.
2. Control the cooking time. Cook the food for the shortest recommended
time. You can extend it if necessary. Food cooked for too long may
emit smoke or catch fire.
3. Cover the foods before cooking. This protects against splashes and
allows for more even cooking.
4. To speed up the cooking of foods such as chicken or hamburgers, flip
them over during the process. Large dishes such as roast should be
flipped at least once during cooking.
Dishes such as meatballs should be moved from the bottom up and
from the centre to the edge of the plate halfway through cooking.
CHOICE OF CONTAINERS
1. The ideal dish material for microwave use should be clear and
microwave transparent and should allow for the flow of energy through
the container in order to heat the food.
2. Microwaves cannot penetrate metal, so do not use dishes with a metal
finish.
3. Do not use products made of wastepaper, as they may contain metal
particles, which can cause arcing or ignition of the material.
4. We recommend the use of round or oval (rather than square or
rectangular) dishes, because the food located in the corners can be
heated excessively.
5. In order to prevent excessive heating, you can place strips of aluminium
foil (but not in excessive amounts) at least 2,5 cm (1 inch) away from
the inside of the oven.
The following list contains general guidelines for choosing the appropriate
dishes:
