Microwave cooking guidelines
o If you are heating liquid in the microwave, then you must also
place a teaspoon in the container. This will ensure that the liquid
does not boil suddenly after being removed from the microwave
cavity.
o This phenomenon is called “delayed boiling”, this means that a
liquid can be close to boiling point, even if there is no steam
coming off the liquid or the liquid is not bubbling. If the liquid
container is even gently shaken, then the liquid can without
warning boil over or even spurt. This could scald the end user.
o If the food you are cooking has a skin or peel (e.g. sausages,
tomatoes, potatoes etc), then you should pierce the skin or peel
with a fork. This will ensure that if steam is created during the
heating process, it can escape and the food will not burst.
o When heating baby food, the bottle or jar containing the food
should NEVER have a top or lid on. After cooking, to ensure that
the food has been heated uniformly, you should stir or shake the
food. IMPORTANT: You must check the temperature of the food
before feeding it to a child.
o When heating food in a microwave, it will transmit the heat to
the container that the food is in or on. You should ALWAYS use
oven gloves when removing items from the microwave.
o You should make sure that you do not cook food for too long or
at too high a power level. This could cause certain areas of the
food to dry out or even ignite.
o You should not use ceramic or porcelain crockery, or porous
earthenware inside of your microwave. These dishes could
absorb moisture from the food whilst it is cooking, which could
cause pressure to build up and shatter the dish.
o If you are heating certain foods and any liquid, moisture will
evaporate and condensation may occur. This does not indicate
that the appliance is faulty and it can be particularly noticeable if
the ambient temperature of the room is high.
oIMPORTANT: Any condensation should be wiped up with a soft
cloth as soon as you have finished using the microwave.
o After the cooking time has completed, you should let the food
stand for a few minutes. This is called “standing time” and will
allow the heat generated by the microwave to spread evenly
throughout the food.

Materials you can use in a microwave oven
Material Remarks
Aluminium foil To be used for shielding only. Small smooth pieces can
be used to cover thin parts of meat or poultry to
prevent overcooking. Arcing can occur if foil is too
close to the cavity walls. The foil should be at least 2.5
cm away from the cavity walls.
Browning dish Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. The bottom of
the browning dish must be at least 5 mm thick above
the turntable. Incorrect usage may cause the
turntable to break.
Dinnerware Microwave-safe only. Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions. Do not use cracked or chipped dishes.
Glass jars Always remove the lid. Use only to heat food until just
warm. Most glass jars are not heat resistant and may
break.
Glassware Heat-resistant oven glassware only. Make sure there is
no metallic trim. Do not use cracked or chipped
dishes.
Oven cooking
bags
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Do not close
with a metal tie. Make slits in the bag to allow steam
to escape.
Paper plates
and cups
Use for short-term cooking/warming only. Do not
leave the oven unattended whilst cooking.
Paper towels Use to cover food for reheating and absorbing fat. Use
under supervision and for short-term cooking only.
Parchment
paper
Use as a cover to prevent splattering or as a wrap for
steaming
Plastic Microwave-safe only. Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions. It should be labelled as “microwave safe”.
Some plastic containers soften as the food inside gets
hot. “Boiling bags” and tightly closed plastic bags
should be slit, pierced or vented, as described by the
package.
Plastic wrap Microwave-safe only. Use to cover food during cooking
to retain moisture. Do not allow the plastic wrap to
touch the food.
Thermometers Microwave-safe only. Meat and candy thermometers.
Wax paper Use as a cover to prevent splattering and to retain
moisture.

Defrosting guidelines
o Only use microwave-safe dishes for defrosting (porcelain, glass,
suitable plastic).
o The defrosting time depends on the quantity and weight of the
food that you are defrosting. When freezing, you should split the
food into quantities that are suitable for defrosting in the
microwave.
o Distribute the food as evenly as possible within the microwave
cavity. The thickest parts of fish or chicken legs should be
placed on top.
o The thicker parts of the food should be turned around several
times during the defrosting process.
o Foods that are rich in fats, such as butter, cottage cheese and
cream should not be entirely defrosted. If they are at room
temperature, they will be ready to serve within a few minutes. If
cream are deep frozen and little bits of ice remain on the top of
it, the cream should be whipped before eating.
o Bread should be wrapped in a napkin so that it does not get too
dry when being defrosted.
o Remove frozen food from its packaging and do not forget to
remove any metal clips. If the containers are suitable for placing
in a freezer and a microwave, then you can simply remove the
lid.
o The liquid that is created during the defrost process, particularly
in the case of poultry should be discarded. Under no
circumstances should it come into contact with other foods.
o A resting period is required when defrosting food, to ensure that
the food is totally defrosted. This normally takes between 15 –
20 minutes.
