This section lists which utensils can be used in the microwave, which ones have limited use for short periods, and
which ones should not be used in the microwave.
Recommended
• Microwave browning dish - Use to brown the exterior of small items such as steaks,chops, or pancakes.
Follow the directions provided with your browning dish.
• Microwaveable plastic wrap - Use to retain steam. Leave a small opening for some steam to escape and
avoid placing it directly on the food.
• Paper towels and napkins - Use for short-term heating and covering; these absorb excess moisture and
prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal and could ignite.
• Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes - Use for heating or cooking.
• Paper plates and cups - Use for short-term heating at low temperatures. Do not use
recycled paper, which may contain metal and could ignite.
• Wax paper - Use as a cover to prevent spattering.
• Thermometers - Use only those labeled "Microwave Safe" and follow all directions. Check the food in several
places. Conventional thermometers may be used on microwave food once the food has been removed from the
oven.
Limited Use
• Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware - Use these if they are labeled "Microwave Safe".
• Plastic - Use only if labeled "Microwave Safe". Other plastics can melt.
• Straw, wicker, and wood - Use only for short-term heating, such as warming dinner rolls for a few seconds;
baskets and bowls may be flammable.
Not Recommended
• Glass jars and bottles - Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave. It can shatter and cause damage
and injury.
• Paper bags - These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use.
• Styrofoam plates and cups - These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food.
• Plastic storage and food containers - Containers such as margarine tubs can melt inthe microwave.
• Metal utensils - These can damage your oven. Remove all metal before cooking.
Note: Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and microwave
on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be used.
