COOKING UTENSILS

Utensils should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use in microwave ovens.

Microwave energy is produced by high frequency radio waves. They are reflected from

metal, but will pass through most cooking utensils without heating them.

As the waves come into contact with the food, they are converted into heat energy. Listed

below are the suggested cooking utensils for this microwave oven and when to use them.

1.Dishes with metal trim of any type-should not be used. This will cause sparking.

2.Glass or ceramic heat proof dishes-excellent for microwave cooking.

3.China dishes and plates-without metal trim may be used to cook and heat individual portions of food.

4.Wood or straw-use only for short period, wood contains some moisture and the microwave energy may cause the wood to dry out and crack.

5.Aluminum foil-may be used in very small pieces for shielding only.

Any aluminum foil used should never be closer than 2.5cm from side walls of oven.

6.Plastic-most heat resistant plastic dinnerwave may be used for heating food. However polyethylene, melamine, phenol are unsuitable for use in the oven. They become hot in the microwave.

7.Wax paper-use as a cover to avoid spatters.

8.Metal-in general, metal utensils should not be used in microwave oven.
