CHOICE OF DISHES
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 waste paper, 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.
