Cookware guide
Cookware guide
To cook food in your microwave oven, microwaves must be able to penetrate the food without
being reected or absorbed by the cookware holding the food.
Consequently, it is important to choose cookware that both allows microwaves to penetrate
food and is microwave-safe.
The following lists contain various types of cookware and indicate if and how the cookware
should be used in a microwave oven.
Recommended cooking utensils
• Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes — Use for heating or cooking.
• Microwavable plastic wrap — Use to cover. Leave a small opening for steam to escape and
avoid placing it directly on the food.
• Wax paper — Use as a cover to prevent spattering.
• Paper towels and napkins — Use for short-term heating and covering. They absorb excess
moisture and prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal and
can catch re.
• Paper plates and cups — Use for short-term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled
paper, which may contain metal and can catch re.
• Thermometers — Use only those labeled 'Microwave Safe' and follow all directions. Check the
food in several places. Conventional thermometers may be used once the food has been removed
from the oven.
Limited use items
• Aluminum foil — Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too
much foil can damage your oven, so be careful.
• Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware — Use these if they are labeled 'Microwave Safe'. If they
are not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used safely. Never use dishes with metallic
trim.
• Plastic — Use only if labeled 'Microwave Safe'. Other plastics can melt.
• Straw, wicker, and wood — Use only for short-term heating, as they are ammable.
Not recommended
• Glass jars and bottles — Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave and can shatter.
• Paper bags — These are a re 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 in the
microwave.
Testing utensils
If you are not sure whether a dish is microwave-safe or not, you can perform this test:
1. Fill a 1 cup glass measuring cup with water and
put it inside your oven, next to the dish you want
to test.
2. Set the microwave to 1 minute using the
numeric buttons, and then press the Start
button. This will heat the glass and dish for one
minute at High power.
When the microwave stops, the water should be
warm and the dish you are testing should be cool.
If the dish is warm, then it is absorbing microwave
energy and is not acceptable for use in the
microwave.
English 29
Cooking guide
Microwave energy actually penetrates food and is attracted to and absorbed by the water, fat,
and sugar molecules in the food. The microwaves cause the molecules in the food to move
rapidly. The rapid movement of these molecules creates friction and the resulting heat cooks
the food.
Cooking techniques
Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at
the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and heats more quickly, so stir from the outside
to the center. The oven will turn off when you open the door to stir your food.
Arrangement
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker, meatier
parts toward the outside of the turntable where they will receive more microwave energy. To
prevent overcooking, place thin or delicate parts toward the center of the turntable.
Shielding
Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Areas that need
shielding include poultry wing-tips, the ends of poultry legs, and the corners of square baking
dishes. Use only small amounts of aluminum foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven.
Turning
Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to microwave energy. This is
especially important with large items such as roasts.
Cooking guide
Standing
Food cooked in the microwave builds up internal heat and continues to cook for a few minutes
after the oven stops. Let food stand to complete cooking, especially food such as roasts
and whole vegetables. Roasts need this time to complete cooking in the center without
overcooking the outer areas. All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate, should be shaken or
stirred when cooking is complete. Let liquids stand a moment before serving. When heating
baby food, stir well and test the temperature before serving.
Adding Moisture
Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content
should be covered or allowed to stand so that the heat disperses evenly. Add a small amount
of water to dry food to help it cook.
Venting
After covering a dish with plastic wrap, vent the plastic wrap by turning back one corner so
excess steam can escape.W

Cooking guide
Cooking guide
General cooking recommendations
• Dense foods, such as potatoes, take longer to heat than lighter foods. Food with a delicate texture
should be heated at a low power level to prevent it from becoming tough.
• Altitude and the type of cookware you are using can affect cooking time. When trying a new
recipe, use the minimum cooking time and check the food occasionally to prevent overcooking.
• Food with a non-porous skin such as potatoes or hot dogs should be pierced to prevent bursting.
• Frying with oil or fat is not recommended. Fat and oil can suddenly boil over and cause severe
burns.
• Some ingredients heat faster than others. For example, the jelly inside a jelly doughnut will be
hotter than the dough. Keep this in mind to avoid burns.
• Home canning in the microwave oven is not recommended because all harmful bacteria may not
be destroyed by the microwave heating process.
• Although microwaves do not heat the cookware, the heat from the food is often transferred to the
cookware. Always use pot holders when removing food from the microwave and instruct children
to do the same.
• Making candy in the microwave is not recommended as candy can heat to very high
temperatures. Keep this in mind to avoid injury.
Guide for cooking eggs in your microwave
• Never cook eggs in the shell and never warm hard-cooked eggs in the shell. They can explode.
• Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting.
• Cook eggs just until set. They become tough if overcooked.
Guide for cooking vegetables in your microwave
• Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Often, no extra water is needed. If you are
cooking dense vegetables such as cubed potatoes, carrots, or green beans, add about ¼ cup
water.
• Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook faster than larger ones.
• Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash, or corn on the cob, should be arranged in a
circle on the turntable before cooking. They will cook more evenly if turned over after half the
cooking time.
• Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem ends pointing towards the
edge of the dish and the tips toward the center.
• When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or vented microwavable plastic
wrap.
• Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash, eggplant, etc., should have their skin
pricked in several spots before cooking to prevent them from bursting.
• For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway through the cooking time.
• Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing time. (Standing time refers to the time
necessary for dense, large foods and vegetables to nish cooking after they come out of the oven.)
A baked potato can stand on the counter for ve minutes before cooking is completed, while a
dish of peas can be served immediately.

Cleaning and maintaining your microwave oven
Cleaning the door and door seals
Always ensure that the door seals are clean and that the door closes properly. Take particular
care when cleaning the door seals to ensure that no particles accumulate and prevent the
door from closing correctly. Wash the glass door with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use
a soft cloth to avoid scratching.
NOTE
If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can
accumulate when you operate the oven when humidity is high and in no way indicates
microwave leakage.
Cleaning the interior
CAUTION
To avoid injury, ensure that the microwave oven has cooled down before cleaning it.
CAUTION
