Cookware and Container Guide
(continued)
Plastics
Plastic dishes, cups and some freezer
containers should be used with care in a
microwave oven. Choose plastic containers
carefully, as some plastic containers may
become soft, melt and may scorch. The majority
of plastic dishes, even those designed for use in
the microwave oven, are not suitable for cooking
foods with high fat or sugar content, or for
lengthy cooking times. Most microwave plastic
dishes should not be used for longer than 3 to 5
minutes on High power. These dishes, although
not suitable for extended cooking, may be used
successfully for defrosting or for use on lower
power levels.
Cooking Bags designed to withstand boiling,
freezing, or conventional heating are microwave
safe. Prepare bags according to manufacturer’s
directions. When cooking by microwave, DO
NOT use wire twist-ties to close bag. They can
act as an antenna and cause arcing (sparks).
DO NOT COOK IN PLASTIC FOOD STORAGE
BAGS.

Plastic Wrap such as GLAD WRAP
®
can be
used to cover dishes in most recipes. Over an
extended heating time, some disfiguration of the
wrap may occur. When removing plastic wrap
“covers”, as well as any glass lid, be careful to
remove it away from you to avoid steam burns.

Loosen plastic but let dish stand, covered.
Metal
Metal cookware or utensils, or those with
metallic trim, should NOT be used in the
microwave. Since microwave energy is reflected
by metal, foods in metal containers will not cook
evenly. There is also a possibility of “arcing.”
Although metal utensils should be avoided in
microwave cooking, some metal can be helpful
when used correctly.
Aluminum foil can be used safely, if certain
guidelines are followed, to prevent overcooking.
Small pieces of foil are used to shield areas
such as chicken wings, tips of roasts, or other
thin parts that cook before the rest of the recipe
is finished. Make sure foil is attached securely
and doesn’t touch sides of oven, otherwise
arcing may occur. Foil lined containers, either
cardboard or plastic, should NOT be used in the
microwave oven as arcing could occur.

Frozen dinner trays can be used in the
microwave, if the container is no deeper than
2 cm and is filled with food. Metal skewers can
not be used in microwave ovens as arcing may
occur. Wooden skewers are readily available
and can be used.
