keeping food warm that has just been cooked.
Do not recommend food being kept warm for too long (more than 1
hour), as it will continue to cook. Warm food spoils more quickly.
Cover liquids and foods which are high moisture contents. But if you
want to keep crisp roast or fried foods, do not cover it.
COOKWARE GUIDE
To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to
penetrate the food, without being reflected or absorbed by the dish used.
Care must therefore be taken when choosing the cookware. If the
cookware is marked microwave-safe, you do not need to worry.
The following table lists various types of cookware and indicates whether
and how they should be used in a microwave oven.
