Blanco B 830FX Microwave Cooking Principles, Microwave Safe Containers, Part Names

MICROWAVE COOKING PRINCIPLES

1.Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.

2.Watch cooking time. Cook for the minimum amount of time indicated and increase cooking time if necessary. Food which has been severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

3.Cover foods while cooking to prevent spattering and to help foods cook evenly.

4.Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed up cooking. Large items such as roasts must be turned over at least once.

5.Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking. Place those on the bottom of the dish at the top and those in the centre of the dish to the outside.

MICROWAVE SAFE CONTAINERS

1.The ideal material of a microwave container is transparent. This allows energy to pass through the container and to heat the food.

2.Microwave oven energy can not penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.

3.Do not use recycled paper products eg. paper towels, when microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.

4.Round/oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.

5.Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Be careful not to use too much foil and keep a distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil and cavity.

The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct microwave safe products.
