MATERIALS YOU CAN USE
IN MICROWAVE
Arcing is sparks or electric flashes that
crackle or pop. Arcing can produce heat
that is quite intense and can damage the
interior of the microwave or containers
being used in the microwave. It can also
cause fire.
Arcing occurs when metal containers
are used in the microwave and can also
occur with the use of metal skewers, metal
clamps, or twist ties for plastic bags. To
prevent arcing, use the charts to determine
which materials are microwave safe, or
follow instructions from container/wrap
manufacturer.
Plastic cookware designed for microwave
cooking is very useful, but should be used
carefully. Even microwave-safe plastic
may not be as tolerant of overcooking
conditions as are glass or ceramic
materials and may soften or char if
subjected to short periods of overcooking.
In longer exposures to overcooking, the
food and cookware could ignite.
Follow these guidelines:
Use microwave-safe plastics only
and use them in strict compliance
with the cookware manufacturer’s
recommendations.
Do not microwave empty containers.
Do not permit children to use plastic
cookware without complete supervision.
CONTAINERS
CAUTION: Personal Injury Hazard
Tightly closed containers could explode.
Closed containers should be opened and
plastic pouches should be pierced before
cooking.
There may be certain non-metallic
materials that are not safe to use for
microwaving. If in doubt, you can test the
material/container in question following the
procedure below.
Material/Container Test:
1. Fill a microwave-safe container with 1
cup of cold water (250ml) along with the
material or container in question.
2. Cook on maximum power for 30
seconds.
3. Carefully feel the material or container.
If it is warm, do not use it for microwave
cooking.
4. Do not exceed 1 minute cooking time.
ABOUT MICROWAVE
COOKING
Arrange food carefully. Place thickest
areas towards outside of dish.
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest
amount of time indicated and add more
as needed. Food severely overcooked can
smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe
or cookbook for suggestions: paper
towels, wax paper, microwave plastic
wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering
and help foods to cook evenly.
• Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum
foil any thin areas of meat or poultry to
prevent overcooking before dense, thick
areas are cooked thoroughly.
• Stir foods from outside to center of dish
once or twice during cooking, if possible.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving
to speed cooking of such foods as
chicken and hamburgers. Large items like
roasts must be turned over at least once.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs
halfway through cooking both from top to
bottom and from the center of the dish to
the outside.
• Add standing time. Remove food from
oven and stir, if possible. Cover for
standing time which allows the food to
finish cooking without overcooking.
• Check for doneness. Look for signs
indicating that cooking temperatures
have been reached.
