Cooking utensils

Recommended use

•Glass and glass - ceramic bowls and dishes - Use for heating or cooking.

•Microwavable plastic wrap - Use to cover. Leave a small opening for some steam to escape and avoid placing it directly on the food.

•Wax paper - Use as a cover to prevent spattering.

•Paper towels and napkins - Use for short-term heating and covering; they absorb excess moisture and prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal and can catch fire.

•Paper plates and cups - Use for short-term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled paper, which may contain metal and can catch fire.

•Thermometers - Use only those labeled “Microwave-Safe” and follow all directions. Check the food in several places. Conventional thermometers may be used once the food has been removed from the oven.

Limited use

•Aluminum foil - Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too much foil can damage your oven, so be careful.

•Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware - Use these if they are labeled “Microwave-Safe”. If they are not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used safely. Never use dishes with metallic trim.

•Plastic - Use only if labeled “Microwave-Safe”. Other plastics can melt.

•Straw, wicker, and wood - Use only for short-term heating, as they can be flammable.

Not recommended

•Glass jars and bottles - Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave, and can shatter.

•Paper bags - These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use.

•Styrofoam plates and cups - These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food.

•Plastic storage and food containers - Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in the microwave.

•Metal utensils - These can damage your oven. Remove all metal before cooking.
