Eggs

Do not cook eggs in their shells

and whole hard-boiled eggs by

MICROWAVE. Pressure may

build up and the eggs may

explode, even after the

microwave heating has ended.

Piercing skin

Food with non porous skins, such

as potatoes, egg yolks and

sausages must be pierced before

cooking by MICROWAVE to

prevent bursting.

Meat thermometer

Use a meat thermometer to

check the degree of cooking of

roasts and poultry only when the

meat has been removed from the

oven. Do not use a conventional

meat thermometer in the

microwave oven because it may

cause sparking.

Liquids

When heating liquids, e.g. soup,

sauces and beverages in your

microwave oven, overheating the

liquid beyond boiling point can

occur without evidence of

bubbling. This could result in a

sudden boil over of the hot liquid.
To prevent this possibility the

following steps should be taken:

a Avoid using straight-sided

containers with narrow necks.

b Do not overheat.

c Stir the liquid before placing the

container in the oven and again

halfway through the cooking time.

d After heating, allow it to stand

in the oven for a short time, stir

again before carefully removing

the container.

Paper/plastic

When heating food in plastic or

paper containers, keep an eye on

the oven as these types of

containers ignite if overheated.

Do not use recycled paper

products (e.g. Kitchen Roll)

unless the paper product is

labelled as safe for microwave

oven use. Recycled paper

products may contain impurities

which may cause sparks and/or

fires during use.

Remove wire twist-ties from

roasting bags before placing the

bags in the oven.

Utensils/foil

Do not heat any closed cans or

bottles because they might

explode.

Metal containers or dishes with

metallic trim should not be used

during microwave cooking.

Sparking will occur.

If you use any aluminium foil,

meat spikes or metalware the

distance between them and the

oven walls and door should be at

least 2 cm to prevent sparking.

Feeding bottles/baby food jars

The top and teat or lid must be

removed from feeding bottles or

baby food jars before placing in

the oven.

The contents of feeding bottles

and baby food jars are to be

stirred or shaken.

The temperature has to be

checked before consumption to

avoid burns.
