Cookware guide To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to penetrate the food, without being reflected or absorbed by the dish used. Care must therefore be taken when choosing the cookware. If the cookware is marked microwave-safe, you do not need to worry. The following table lists various types of cookware and indicates whether and how they should be used in a microwave oven.
Cookware guide Cookware Microwave-safe Comments • Plates, cups, napkins and kitchen paper ✓ For short cooking times and warming. Also to absorb excess moisture. • Recycled paper ✗ May cause arcing. • Containers ✓ Particularly if heat-resistant thermoplastic. Some other plastics may warp or discolour at high temperatures. Do not use Melamine plastic. • Cling film ✓ Can be used to retain moisture. Should not touch the food. Take care when removing the film as hot steam will escape.
Cooking guide Microwaves Microwave energy actually penetrates food, attracted and absorbed by its water, fat and sugar content. The microwaves cause the molecules in the food to move rapidly. The rapid movement of these molecules creates friction and the resulting heat cooks the food. Cooking Cookware for microwave cooking: Covering during cooking Cookware must allow microwave energy to pass through it for maximum efficiency.
