USING UTENSILS WHEN PREPARING FOOD
Before starting to prepare food in containers, you should check
that the containers you wish to use are made of a suitable
material, as some types of plastic may become "limp" and
deform, while some types of ceramics may crack (particularly
when heating small quantities of food).

In order to test if a container is suitable for use in a
microwave oven:

Fireproof covered dishes Glass dishes with lids that fit so
closely that steam cannot escape are ideal for vegetables
and fruit to which no liquid is added (however, the cooking
time must not exceed 5 minutes).

Browning dishes You must be very careful when using this
type of dish. Never heat the browning dish for more than 5
minutes on the turntable. Suitable insulation, such as a
heat-tested plate, should be placed between the browning
dish and the turntable to prevent the turntable from
overheating.

Clingfilm can be used particularly for soups, sauces, stewed
dishes or when defrosting food. Can also be used as a
loose covering to prevent fat, etc. from spraying out into the
oven space.

•
Kitchen roll is ideal, as kitchen roll absorbs moisture and fat.
For example, bacon can be placed in layers, with kitchen
roll between each layer. The bacon will then be completely
crispy, as it does not sit in "its own fat". Home-baked bread
can be taken directly from the freezer, packed in kitchen roll
and heated in the microwave oven.

Roasting bags are ideal for meat, fish and vegetables.
However, they must never be closed using metal clips.
Cotton thread should be used instead. Prick the bag with
small holes, and place it in the microwave oven on a plate
or glass dish.
