The microwave
Microwaves are converted to heat in foodstuffs. The microwave
can be used solo, i.e. on its own, or in combination with a different
type of heating. You will find information about ovenware and how
to set the microwave.
Notes regarding ovenware
Suitable ovenware
Suitable dishes are heat-resistant ovenware made of glass, glass
ceramic, porcelain, ceramic or heat-resistant plastic. These
materials allow microwaves to pass through.
You can also use serving dishes. This saves you having to
transfer food from one dish to another. You should only use
ovenware with decorative gold or silver trim if the manufacturer
guarantees that they are suitable for use in microwaves.
Unsuitable ovenware
Metal ovenware is unsuitable. Metal does not allow microwaves to
pass through. Food in covered metal containers will remain cold.
Caution!
Creation of sparks: metal – e.g. a spoon in a glass – must be kept
at least 2 cm from the oven walls and the inside of the door.
Sparks could destroy the glass on the inside of the door.
Ovenware test
Do not switch on the microwave unless there is food inside. The
following ovenware test is the only exception to this rule.
Perform the following test if you are unsure whether your
ovenware is suitable for use in the microwave:
1.
Heat the empty ovenware at maximum power for ½ to 1 minute.
2.
Check the temperature occasionally during that time.
The ovenware should still be cold or warm to the touch.
The ovenware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks are
generated.
