Selecting cookware

Covering the food

Use a cover only during the Microwave function. Plastics are only heat-resistant up to 230°F (110°C). Higher temperatures (Broiling, Convection Bake, etc.) can cause the cover to melt into the food.

The cover should not completely seal the container. This may prevent steam from escaping causing the cover to melt.

A cover:

prevents most of the steam from escaping, especially when cooking foods which needs longer to cook, such as potatoes.

shortens and evens out the cooking process.

prevents the food from drying out.

prevents soiling of the oven interior.

￿Cover the food with a glass or plastic lid suitable for ovens. They are available in retail stores.

Plastic wrap suitable for microwaving can also be used.

￿Do not heat food in closed containers e.g. glass baby food containers. Vent the container before heating.

Do not use a lid or cover if cooking food in which a crisp finish is desired e.g. breaded chicken, garlic bread, etc.
