Automatic Cooking Containers & Covers

Containers and covers

Appropriate containers and coverings help assure good cooking results.

Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with lids, wax paper or plastic wrap. Wonder if it’s microwave safe? Put it to the test described in your cookbook.

Never use tight-sealing plastic covers-they can prevent steam from escaping and cause food to overcook.

Match the amount of food to the size of the container. Fill containers at least half full.

Be sure the outside of the cooking container and the inside of the microwave oven are dry before placing food in the oven. Beads of moisture turning into steam can mislead the sensor.

Use microwave-safe casseroles or bowls for entrees and vegetables. Cover with lids that fit. If lids are not available, use plastic wrap or wax paper. Plastic wrap should be loose over food to allow for expansion. Seal by pressing plastic wrap fhy around edges.

Use oblong or square containers for chicken or com on the cob. Plastic wrap covering should be loose over food to allow for expansion. Seal by pressing plastic wrap firmly around edges.
