COOKING UTENSILS GUIDE

This section lists which utensils can be used in this microwave, which have limited use for short periods, and which should not be used in this 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 splattering. Do not use recycled paper towels which may contain metal and could ignite.

Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes -- Use for heating and 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 splattering.

Thermometers --Use only those labeled “Microwave Safe” and follow all directions. Check the food in several places. Conventional thermometers may be used on microwaved food once the food has been removed from the microwave.

LIMITED USE

Aluminum foil --Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking exposed areas. Using too much foil can damage your microwave, so be careful. Keep 1” between foil and microwave cavity.

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.

Plastic --Only use if labeled “Microwave Safe”. Other plastics may melt.
