UTENSILS GUIDE  
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.  
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.  
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.  
9
Λ LIMITED USE  
Aluminum foil — Use narrow strips of foil to  
prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using  
too much foil can damage your oven, so be  
careful. You should keep distance of 1 inch  
(2.54cm) between aluminum foil and cavity.  
Microwaveable plastic wrap — Use to retain  
steam. Leave a small opening for some steam  
to escape and avoid placing it directly on the  
food.  
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.  
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.  
Plastic — Use only if labeled "Microwave  
Safe". Other plastics can melt.  
Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes  
— Use for heating or cooking.  
8 Not Recommended  
Paper plates and cups — Use for short-term  
heating at low temperatures. Do not use  
recycled paper, which may contain metal and  
could ignite.  
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.  
Wax paper — Use as a cover to prevent  
spattering.  
5
 
Styrofoam plates and cups — These can  
Note:  
melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food.  
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.  
Plastic storage and food containers —  
Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in  
the microwave.  
Metal utensils — These can damage your oven.  
Remove all metal before cooking.  
COOKING TECHNIQUES  
Your microwave makes cooking easier than  
conventional cooking, provided you keep these  
considerations in mind:  
TURNING  
Turn foods over midway through cooking to  
expose all parts to microwave energy. This is  
especially important with large foods such as  
roasts.  
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.  
STANDING  
Foods cooked in the microwave build up  
internal heat and continue to cook for a few  
minutes after heating stops. Let foods stand to  
complete cooking, especially foods such as  
cakes 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 at removal and test the  
temperature before serving.  
ARRANGEMENT  
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as  
chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker,  
meatier parts toward the outside of the  
turntable where they receive more microwave  
energy. To prevent overcooking, place delicate  
areas, such as asparagus tips, toward the  
center of the turntable.  
ADDING MOISTURE  
SHIELDING  
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.  
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 corners of square baking  
dishes. Use only small amounts of aluminum  
foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven.
