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: 

z

 

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 

 

z

 

Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat evenly. 

z

 

Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and heats quicker, so stir from the outside to the center. 

z

 

The microwave will turn off when you open the door to stir your food. 

 

ARRANGEMENT 

 

z

 

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. 

z

 

To prevent overcooking, place delicate areas, such as asparagus tips, towards the center of the turntable. 

 

SHIELDING 

 

z

 

Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. 

z

 

Areas that need shielding include poultry wing tips, the ends of poultry legs, and corners of square baking dishes. 

z

 

Use only small amounts of aluminum foil, as larger amounts may damage your microwave. 

 

TURNING 

 

z

 

Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to microwave energy. 

z

 

This is especially important when cooking large foods such as roasts.
