XXXXXXXXXXXXX SUITABLE COOKWARE
GLASS AND GLASS-CERAMIC
Heat-resistant glassware is very
suitable. You can obser ve the
cooking process from all sides.
It cannot contain any metal (e.g.
lead crystal) or a metal coating (e.g.
gold frame, china blue).
CERAMIC
I n g e n e r a l , c e r a m i c i s v e r y
suitable. Ceramic must be glazed
because moisture can penetrated
the ceramic if it is unglazed.
I n a m i c r o w a v e o v e n , t h i s
moisture will heat up and can
cause the ceramic to shatter. If you are not sure
whether your cookware is suitable for use in a
microwave, please do a suitability test. See Page
GB-38.
PORCELAIN
In general, porcelain is very suitable. Be sure that your
porcelain does not contain any metal or gold or silver
plating.
PLASTIC
Heat resistant, microwave-safe
plastic ware is suitable for thawing,
heating and cooking. Please note
the manufacturer’s instructions.
PAPER DISHWARE
Heat resistant, microwave-safe paper dishware is also
suitable. Please note the manufacturer’s instructions.
PAPER TOWELS
can be used to absorb excess
moisture in short heating processes,
e.g. for bread or breaded items. Put
the paper towel between the food
and the turning plate. The surface of
your food will stay dry and crunchy.
Covering the food with paper towels
will contain splatters from greasy foods.
MICROWAVE FOIL
or heat resistant foil is suitable for covering or wrapping
foods. Please note the manufacturer’s instructions.
ROASTING BAGS
can be used in the microwave oven. Metal clips are
not suited to close such bags, as
they might cause the foil to melt.
Use kitchen string to close these
bags and pierce the bag with a
fork. Do not use foils that are not
heat resistant, e.g. cling film, in your
microwave.
METAL
should not be used, because the microwaves cannot
penetrate it and can therefore
not reach your foods. There are
some exceptions: Narrow strips of
aluminum foil can be used to cover
parts of food, so that these parts do
not thaw or cook too fast (e.g. the
wings of a chicken).
Small metal spikes and aluminum bowls (e.g. in ready-
to-serve meals) can be used.
They must be small in relation to the food, e.g. the food
must fill the aluminum bowl at least
to ¾. We recommend transferring
such foods to dishes suitable for
use in a microwave. When using
aluminum bowls or other metal
dishes, you must keep a minimum
distance of about 2.0 cm to the
walls of the cooking chamber, otherwise they can be
damaged by possible sparks.
DO NOT USE DISHES WITH METAL PLATING,
or metal parts, e.g. screws, bands or handles.
