HOW TO USE YOUR MICROWAVE
UTENSILS GUIDE
1. The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to microwaves,
it allows energy to pass through the container and heat the food.
2. Microwaves cannot penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with
metallic trim should not be used.
3. Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they
may contain small metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.
4. Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as
food in corners tends to overcook.
5. Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to prevent overcooking of
exposed areas. But be careful don’t use too much and keep a distance of
1 inch (2.54cm) between foil and cavity.
