Plastic
When using plastic wrap as a cover,
make sure that the dish is deep
enough so the plastics wrap does not
touch the food. As the food heats, it
may melt the plastics wrap wherever
the wrap touch the food.
Place plastics wrap loosely over the
top of the dish and secure it by
pressing the wrap to the sides of the
dish.
Vent by turning back one corner of
the plastics wrap. This will allow
excess steam to escape.
Use plastic dishes, cups, semi-rigid
freezer, containers, and plastic bags
only for short time cooking. Use these
with care because the plastics may
soften from the heat of the food.
