heat containers, but heat from the food can
make the container hot.

At the end of the recommended cooking time,
potatoes should be slightly firm because they
will continue cooking during standing time.
After microwaving, wrap potatoes in foil and
set aside for 5 minutes. They will finish
cooking while standing.

in the oven. Fire could result.
