Food Preparation (continued)
3)
DEEP FAT FRYING
•
DO NOT
deep fat fry in your microwave oven. Cooking oils
may burst into flames and may cause damage to the oven and
may result in burns. Microwave utensils may not withstand the
temperature of the hot oil, and can shatter or melt.
4)
FOODS WITH NONPOROUS SKINS
•
DO NOT COOK / REHEAT WHOLE EGGS, WITH OR WITHOUT
THE SHELL.
Steam buildup in whole
eggs may cause them
to explode, and possibly
damage the oven or
cause injury. Reheating
SLICED hard-boiled eggs
and cooking SCRAMBLED eggs is safe.
•
Potatoes, apples, whole squash
and sausages
are examples of
foods with nonporous skins. These
types of foods must be pierced
before microwave cooking to
prevent them from exploding.
CAUTION:
Cooking dry or old
potatoes can cause fire.
5)
GLASS TRAY / COOKING CONTAINERS / FOIL
•
Cooking containers get hot during microwaving. Heat is
transferred from the HOT food to the container and the Glass
Tray. Use pot holders when removing containers from the oven
or when removing lids or plastic wrap covers from cooking
containers, to avoid burns.
•
The Glass Tray will get hot during cooking. It should be allowed
to cool before handling or before paper products, such as paper
plates or microwave popcorn bags, are placed in the oven for
microwave cooking.
•
When using foil in the oven, allow at least 1-inch (2.5 cm) of
space between foil and interior oven walls or door.
•
Dishes with metallic trim should not be used, as arcing
may occur.
6)
PAPER TOWELS / CLOTHS
•
DO NOT
use paper towels or cloths that contain a synthetic fiber
woven into them. The synthetic fiber may cause the towel to
ignite. Use paper toweling under supervision.
7)
BROWNING DISHES / OVEN COOKING BAGS
•
Only use browning dishes that are designed
for microwave cooking. Check browning dish
information for instructions/heating chart.
DO NOT
preheat browning dish more than six minutes.
•
If an oven cooking bag is used for microwave cooking, prepare
according to package directions.
DO NOT
use a wire twist-tie to close bag. Instead
use plastic ties, cotton string or a strip cut
from the open end of the bag.
8)
THERMOMETERS
•
DO NOT
use a conventional meat
thermometer in
your oven. Arcing may occur.
Microwave safe thermometers are
available for both meat and candy.
9)
BABY FORMULA / BABY FOOD
•
DO NOT
heat baby formula or baby food in
the microwave oven. The glass jar or
surface of the food may appear warm while
the interior can be so hot as to burn the
infant’s mouth and esophagus.
10)
REHEATING PASTRY PRODUCTS
•
When reheating pastry products, check temperatures of any
fillings before eating. Some foods have fillings, which heat faster
and can be extremely hot, while the surface remains warm to the
touch (for example, jelly donuts).
11)
GENERAL OVEN USAGE GUIDELINES
•
DO NOT
use the oven for any purpose other than the
preparation of food.
