Utensil safety
Most glass, glass ceramic and heat-resistant glass-
ware utensils are excellent for use in the micro-wave
oven. Although microwave energy will not heat most
glass and ceramic items, these utensils can become
hot as heat transfers from the food to the container.
The use of oven gloves to remove dishes is
recommended.
