Utensils Guide

1. The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to microwave, it allows energy to pass through the container and
heat the food.
2. Microwave cannot penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.
Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments which may
3.
cause sparks and/or fires.
Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.
4.
The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils.

Defrosting Frozen Foods

1. If you try to completely defrost frozen foods in the microwave oven, uneven defrosting may occur due to the
differences in the thickness and shape of the food. Drippings may also result, and sometimes a part of the food
cooks although other parts still remain frozen. In actual usage of frozen foods, you should not normally
completely defrost food, but 70% defrosting in the oven is quite good for the next step of preparing the food
for cooking.
2. To defrost evenly, turn over or rearrange the food during defrosting.
3. To defrost fatty meat, heat for a short time in the oven and leave it to stand at room temperature, or heat it
intermittently until defrosted.
4. Ice should be removed at times during defrosting.

For Best Cooking Results

1. When determining time for particular foods, always figure minimum time and check occasionally during
cooking for progress. The microwave oven cooks so quickly, therefore it is easy to overcook your foods.
2. Be careful of the cooking time for small quantities of foods, or foods with low water content. They may burn if
cooked too long.
3. Do not use the oven for drying kitchen towels or napkins. They may burn if heated too long.
4. Do not try to boil eggs in the oven.
5. When you cook an egg, be sure to pierce the yolk membrane prior to placing into the oven to prevent the egg
bursting.
6. Open the door and give the dish a half turn, or turn the food over during cooking. This helps to achieve more
even cooking.
