Selecting cookware

Exceptions:

–Pre-cooked meals in aluminum foil containers can be defrosted and reheated in the microwave oven. Important: Remove the lid before heating the food.

The food is heated only from above. To heat the food evenly place it in a container suitable for microwaving.

–For even defrosting and to avoid overcooking unevenly shaped cuts of meat, poultry or fish, small pieces of aluminum foil may be used to mask wing-tips or other thin parts for the last few minutes of the process.

Make sure that the aluminum foil is at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the oven walls at all times. It must not touch the walls.

–Metal meat skewers or clamps should only be used if they are small in comparison to the size of the meat.
