Microwaves

–

are reflected by metal,

– pass through glass, porcelain,

plastic and card,

–

and are absorbed by food.

Material and shape

The material and shape of containers

used affect cooking results and

durations. Heat distribution is more

even in round and oval shaped flat

containers than in rectangular

containers, providing better results.

Containers and lids with hollow

handles or knobs in which moisture

can collect are unsuitable, unless

the hollowed handles are

adequately vented.

Without vent holes pressure can

build up, causing the container to

crack or shatter with the danger of

injury.

Metal

Metal containers, aluminium foil,

metal cutlery, and china with metalic

decoration such as gold rims or

cobalt blue must not be used on

microwave mode.

Metal relfects microwaves and

obstructs the cooking process.

Also, avoid using plastic pots where

the foil lid has not be completely

removed.

Exceptions:

–

Ready-meals in aluminium foil

dishes.

These can be defrosted and reheated

in the microwave oven, if

recommended by the manufacturer.

Important: Remove the lid and make

sure the foil dish is at least 2 cm from

the oven walls at all times.

As food is only heated from the top, it is

better to remove the food from the

aluminium foil container and transfer it

to a dish suitable for a microwave oven.

The heat distribution will be more even.
