MICROWAVING TIPS
●
Make sure all cookware used in your microwave
oven is
casseroles, cooking dishes, measuring cups, custard
cups, pottery or china dinnerware which does not
have metallic trim or
be used. Some cookware is labeled “suitable for
microwaving”.
● If you are not
sure if a dish
is
safe, use this
test:

are testing and

.=
measuring cup filled with one cup water—set the
measuring cup either in or next to the dish.
Microwave 1 minute at high. If the dish heats, it
should not be used for microwaving. If the dish
remains cool and only the water in the cup heats,
then the dish is microwave-safe.

additional attention such as frequent stirring, rotating
or turning over. Most of your cooking will be done on
HIGH (Power Level 10). A lower setting will cook
more evenly and with less attention given to stirring
or rotating the food. Some foods may have better
flavor, texture or appearance if one of the lower
