Food Preparation (continued)
8) THERMOMETERS
•
DO NOT
use a conventional
meat thermometer in your
oven. Arcing may occur.
Microwave safe thermometers
are available for both meat and
candy.
9) BABY FORMULA / BABY FOOD
•
DO NOT
heat baby formula or baby
food in the microwave oven. The glass
jar or surface of the food may appear
warm while the interior can be so
hot as to burn the infant’s mouth and
esophagus.
10) REHEATING PASTRY PRODUCTS
• When reheating pastry products, check temperatures of any
fillings before eating. Some foods have fillings, which heat
faster and can be extremely hot, while the surface remains
warm to the touch (for example, jelly donuts).
11) GENERAL OVEN USAGE GUIDELINES
•
DO NOT
use the oven for any purpose other than the
preparation of food.
