MICROWAVE-SAFE COOKWARE
Make sure to use suitable cookware during microwave
cooking. Most glass casseroles, cooking dishes,
measuring cups, custard cups, pottery or china
dinnerware which does not have metallic trim or glaze
with a metallic sheen can be used. Some cookware is
labeled “suitable for microwaving.”

bags should be slit, pierced or vented as directed by
package instructions. If they are not, plastic could
burst during or immediately after cooking, possibly
resulting in injury. Also, plastic storage containers
should be at least partially uncovered because they
form a tight seal. When cooking with containers
tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove covering
carefully and direct steam away from hands and
face.

microwave cooking is very useful, but should be
used carefully. Even microwave-safe plastic may not
be as tolerant of overcooking conditions as are glass
or ceramic materials. Plastic may soften or char if
subjected to short periods of overcooking. In longer
exposures to overcooking, the food and cookware
could ignite.

Follow these guidelines:
1. Use microwave-safe plastics only, and use them in
strict compliance with the cookware manufacturer’s
recommendations.
2. Do not microwave empty containers.
3. Do not permit children to use plastic cookware
without adult supervision.
