What type of containers may be used?

Microwave function

In the microwave function, it is important to

remember that the microwaves are reflected by

metallic surfaces. Glass, porcelain, ceramic,

plastic and paper will allow the microwaves to

pass through.

Therefore, metallic pans and dishes for

cooking or containers with metallic

components or decorations may not be used

in the microwave. Glassware and ceramic with

metallic decorations or parts (e.g. lead glass)

may not be used.

The ideal materials to be used for cooking in a

microwave oven are refractory, heat-resistant

glass, porcelain or ceramic. Very fine crystal and

porcelain should only be used for a short time, to

defrost or reheat foods that have already been

cooked.

Test the dishes

Place the dish inside the oven at the maximum

power level for 20 seconds. If it is cold or not very

hot, it is suitable. However, if it gets very hot or

causes an electrical arch, it is not suitable.

Hot foods transmit heat to the dish, which may

become very hot. Therefore, always use a glove!

Grill function

In the case of the grill function, the dish must be

resistant to temperatures of at least 250ºC.

Plastic dishes are not suitable.

Combined function

In the combined function, the dishes that are used

must be suitable for both microwave and grill

cooking.

Aluminium containers and foils

Precooked foods in aluminium containers or

wrapped in aluminium foil may be placed in the

microwave oven if the following instructions are

followed:

    

instructions that are printed on the packaging,

Aluminium containers should not be higher

than 3 cm and they should not come into

contact with the walls of the cavity (minimum

distance 3 cm). The aluminium lid should be

removed.

Place the aluminium container directly on the

rotating plate. If the grille is used, the

container should be placed on a porcelain

plate. Never put the container directly on the

grille!

The cooking time will be longer because the

microwaves only enter the food from above. In

case of doubt, only use microwave-safe

dishes.

Aluminium foil may be used to reflect the

microwaves during the defrosting process.

Delicate foods, such as poultry or minced

meat, may be protected from excessive heat

by covering the respective ends.

Important: the aluminium foil must not come

into contact with the walls of the cavity, as this

could cause an electrical arch.

Lids

The use of glass or plastic lids or adherent film is

recommended, for the following reasons:

1. They prevent excessive evaporation (especially

in very long cooking periods);

2. The cooking process is faster;

3. The food does not go dry;

4. The aroma is preserved.

The lid should have holes to avoid any type of

pressure from building up. Plastic bags should

also have openings. Baby bottles and baby food

jars and other similar containers must only be

heated without the lid, as they might explode if it is

left on.

The following table gives general guidelines on

the type of dishes that are suitable for each

situation.
