Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is 
caused by:

■

the temperature probe staying in the oven but not inserted 
in the food.

■

the metal shelf being installed incorrectly and touching the 
microwave walls.

■

metal or foil touching the side of the oven.

■

foil that is not molded to food (upturned edges act like 
antennas).

■

metal such as twist-ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed dishes.

■

recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces.

Covers hold in moisture, allow for more even heating and reduce 
cooking time. Venting plastic wrap or covering with wax paper 
allows excess steam to escape.

In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked foods to 
prevent over-browning. When microwaving, you use small strips 
of foil to shield thin parts, such as the tips of wings and legs on 
poultry, which would cook before larger parts.

When you cook with regular ovens, foods such as roasts or cakes 
are allowed to stand to finish cooking or to set. Standing time is 
especially important in microwave cooking. Note that a 
microwaved cake is not placed on a cooling rack.

After covering a dish with plastic wrap, you vent the plastic wrap by 
turning back one corner so excess steam can escape.
