PLASTIC
Many plastic containers are designed for
microwave use. Only use Tupperware
®
containers if they are designed for microwave
use. Do not use Melamine as it will scorch. Do
not use plastic for cooking foods high in sugar
or fat or foods that require long cooking times
e.g. brown rice. Never cook in margarine
containers or yogurt pots, as these will melt with
the heat from the food.
DO NOT USE UNDER THE GRILL.
PAPER
Plain white kitchen paper (kitchen towel) can be used for
covering blind pastry cases and for cover ing bacon to
prevent splattering ONLY USE FOR SHORT COOKING
TIMES. NEVER RE-USE A PIECE OF KITCHEN TOWEL.
Avoid kitchen paper containing manmade fibres.
Check that branded re-cycled kitchen towel is
recommended for microwave use. Do not use waxed or
plastic coated cups as the finish may melt in the oven.
Greaseproof paper can be used to line the base of dishes
and to cover fatty foods. White paper plates can be used
for SHORT RE HEATING TIMES, ON MICROWAVE
ONLY.
WICKER, WOOD, STRAW BASKETS
Do not use these items in your microwave. With
continued use and with prolonged exposure they will
crack and could ignite. DO NOT USE ON ANY COOKING
MODE.
CLING FILM
Use microwave cling film to cover food that is to be
reheated, or cooked, ON MICROWAVE ONLY taking care
to avoid the film being in direct contact with the food. DO
NOT USE ON GRILL OR COMBINATION.
ALUMINIUM FOIL
Small amounts of smooth aluminium foil can be used to
SHIELD joints of meat during defrosting and cooking. As
the microwaves cannot pass through the foil this prevents
the shielded parts from overcooking or overdefrosting.
The foil must not touch the sides or roof of the oven, as
this may cause arching and damage your oven.
ROASTING BAGS
These are useful when slit up one side to tent a joint of
meat when roasting by power and time. DO NOT USE
THE METAL TWISTS SUPPLIED.
