10 - COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
Utensil Guide
Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens.
To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to penetrate the food, without being reflected or absorbed
by the dish used. Care must therefore be taken choosing the utensil. If the utensil is marked microwave-safe, you do not need
to worry. The following table lists various utensils and indicates whether and how they should be used in a microwave oven.
UTENSIL SAFE COMMENTS
Aluminum foil
Can be used in small quantities to protect areas against overcooking.
Arcing can occur if the foil is too close to the oven wall or if too much foil is
used.
Crisp plate
Do not preheat for more than 8 minutes.
China and earthenware
Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and bone china are usually suitable,
unless decorated with a metal trim.
Disposable polyester
cardboard dishes
Some frozen foods are packaged in these dishes.
Fast-food packaging
• Polystyrene cup containers
Can be used to warm food. Overheating may cause the polystyrene to melt.
• Paper bags or newspaper
May catch fire.
• Recycled paper or metal trims
May cause arcing.
Glassware
• Oven-to-table ware
Can be used, unless decorated with a metal trim.
• Fine glassware

Paper
• Plates, cups, napkins and
kitchen paper

Plastic
• Containers
Particularly if heat-resistant thermoplastic. Some other plastics may warp or
discolor at high temperatures. Do not use Melamine plastic.
• Cling film
Can be used to retain moisture. Should not touch the food.
Take care when removing the film as hot steam will escape.
• Freezer bags
Only if boilable or oven-proof. Should not be airtight. Prick with a fork, if
necessary.
