10Information You Need To Know

About utensils and coverings

It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces already in your kitchen can be used success- fully in your new Over the Range Microwave Oven. Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls during cooking.

Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and reheating:

•glass ceramic (P yroceram ® ), such as Corningware®.

•heat-resistant glass (Pyrex®)

•microwave-safe plastics

•paper plates

•microwave -safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain

•browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheating time. Follow manufacturer's directions.)

These items can be used for short time reheating of foods that have little fat or sugar in them:

• wood, straw, wicker

DO NOT USE

•metal pans and bakeware

•dishes with metallic trim

•non-heat-resistant glass

•non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)

•recycled paper products

•brown paper bags

•food storage bags

•metal twist-ties

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.

The following coverings are ideal:

•Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.

•Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.

•Plastic wrap that is specially marked for micro- wave use can be used for cooking and reheating. DO NOT allow plastic wrap to touch food. Vent so steam can escape.

•Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice because heat is kept near the food to hasten cooking.

•Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or foods that need tenderizing. DO NOT use metal twist ties. Remember to slit bag so steam can escape.

How to use aluminum foil in your Over the Range Microwave Oven:

•Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on the food can be used to shield areas that are either defrosting or cooking too quickly.

•Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface of the oven.

Should you have questions about utensils or cover- ings, check a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe suggestions.
