• To fill in and arrange the food properly for cooking, place the thickest parts at
the outer edge.
• Watch cooking time.
• Look for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed.
Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook
evenly.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as
chicken and hamburgers. Large items such as roasts or broiled chicken must
be turned over at least once.
• Rearranging, e.g. of meatballs, is also important: Rearrange foods halfway
through cooking both from top to bottom and from the centre of the dish to
the outside.
• The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to microwave,
it allows energy to pass through the container and.heat the food.
• Microwaves can not penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with
metallic trim should not be used.
• Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they
may contain small metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.
• Round/oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend,
as food in corners tends to overcook.
• Narrow strips of aluminium foil may be used to prevent overcooking of
exposed areas. But be careful not to use too much and keep a distance
of 1 inch (2.5 cm) between foil and cavity.
The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils.
