COOKWARE GUIDE

Most heat-resistant, non-metallic cookware is safe for use in your microwave oven. However, to test cookware before using, follow these steps:

1. Place the empty cookware in the microwave oven.

2. Measure 1 cup of water in a glass measuring cup and place it in the oven beside the cookware.

3. Microwave on 100% power for 1 minute. If the dish is warm, it should not be used for microwave cooking.

USE DO NOT USE

Ovenproof Glass

• Glass treated for use in high-intensity heat

includes utility dishes, bread dishes, pie plates, cake plates, liquid measuring cups, casseroles, and bowls

without metallic trim.

China

• Bowls, cups, serving plates, and platters without metallic trim can be used in your oven.

Plastic

• When using plastic wrap as a cover, make sure that the dish is deep enough so the plastic wrap does not

touch the food. As the food heats, it may melt the plastic wrap wherever the wrap touches the food.

• Place plastic 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 plastic 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 plastic may soften from the heat of the food.

Paper

• Microwave-safe paper towels, waxed paper, paper napkins, and paper plates with no metallic trim or design can be used in your oven.

• Refer to the manufacturer's label for use of any paper product in the microwave oven.

Metal Utensil

• Metal shields food from microwave energy and produces uneven cooking. Avoid metal skewers,

thermometers, or foil trays.

• Metal utensils can cause arcing, which is a

discharge of electric current. Arcing can damage your microwave oven.

Metal Decoration

• Do not use metal-trimmed or metal-banded

dinnerware, casserole dishes, etc.

Centura TM Tableware

• The Coming Company recommends that you

de not use Centura tableware and some Corelle TM closed-handle cups for microwave cooking.

Aluminum Foil

• Do not use large sheets of aluminum foil because

they hinder cooking and may cause arcing.You may

use small pieces of foil to shield poultry legs and

wings.

• Keep all aluminum foil at least 1 inch from the walls

and door of the oven.

Wood

• Wooden bowls, boards, and baskets will dry out and may split or crack when you use them in the microwave oven.

Tightly Closed Containers

• Tightly closed cookware can explode. Be sure

to leave an opening for steam to escape from covered cookware.

Brown Paper

• Do not use brown paper bags. They absorb

heat and could burn.

Metal Twist Ties

• Always remove metal twist ties as they can become hot and cause a fire.

TIPS FOR MICROWAVE COOKING

BROWNING

Meat and poultry with high fat content that are cooked for 10 or 15 minutes or longer will brown lightly. Foods

cooked a shorter time can be brushed with a browning agent, such as Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, or

barbecue sauce.

COVERING A cover traps heat and steam and causes the food to

cook more quickly. Use a lid or microwave-safe plastic wrap with one corner folded back to vent the excess steam. Lids on glass casseroles can become hot during cooking. Handle carefully. Waxed paper will

prevent the food from splattering in the oven and help retain heat. When warming bread items, use waxed paper, napkins, or paper towels. To absorb extra moisture, wrap sandwiches and fatty foods in paper

towels.

SPACING

Arrange individual foods, such as baked potatoes, cupcakes, and hors d'oeuvres' in a circle and at least

1 inch apart. This will help the food cook more evenly.

STIRRING

Stirring blends flavors and redistributes the heat in foods. Always stir from the outside toward the center

of the dish. Food at the outside of the dish heats first.

ARRANGEMENT

Do not stack food. Arrange in a single layer in the dish

for more even cooking. Because dense foods cook

more slowly, place thicker portions of meat, poultry, fish, and vegetables toward the outside of the dish.

TESTING FOR DONENESS

Because foods cook quickly in a microwave oven, you need to test frequently for doneness.

STANDING TIME IN OVEN Depending on density, food often needs to stand from

2 to 15 minutes either in or outside of oven after cooking power shuts off. Outside of oven, you usually

need to cover food during standing time to retain heat. Remove most foods when they are slightly undercooked and they will finish cooking during standing time. The internal temperature of food will rise about 10°F during

standing time.

SHIELDING

To prevent some portions of rectangular or square

dishes from overceoking, you may need to shield

them with small strips of aluminum foil to block the

microwaves. You can also cover poultry legs and wing tips with foil to keep them from overcooking. Always keep foil at least 1 inch from oven walls to prevent arcing.

TURNING

Large foods, such as roasts and whole poultry, should be turned so that the top and bottom cook evenly. Also turn over chicken pieces and chops.

CLEANING

Wipe the oven inside and outside with a soft cloth and

a mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe dry.

This should be done weekly or more often, if needed.

Never use cleaning powders or rough pads.

Excessive oil splatters on the inside top will be difficult to remove if left for many days. Wipe splatters with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking chicken or

bacon.

REMOVABLE PARTS The turntable and turntable roller rest are removable.

They should be hand-washed in warm (not hot) water with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Once they are

clean, rinse well and dry with a soft cloth. Never use

cleaning powders, steel wool, or rough pads.

PIERCING

Pierce the shell, skin, or membrane of foods before cooking to prevent them from bursting. Foods that

require piercing include yolks and whites of eggs, hot dogs, clams, oysters, and whole vegetables, such as

potatoes and squash.

• The turntable may be cleaned at the sink. Be careful not to chip or scratch the edges as this may cause

the turntable to break during use.

• The turntable roller rest should be cleaned regularly.

SPECIAL CARE For best performance and safety, the inner door panel

and the oven front frame should be free of food or grease buildup. Wipe often with a mild detergent; then

rinse and wipe dry. Never use cleaning powders or rough pads.

After cleaning the control panel, touch STOP/CLEAR to clear any entries that might have been entered accidentally while cleaning the panel.

OPERATING TIPS

• For best results, remove fish, shellfish, meat, and

poultry from its original closed paper or plastic pack- age (wrapper). Otherwise, the wrap will hold steam and juice close to the foods, which can cause the

outer surface of the foods to cook.

• For best results, shape your ground meat into the form of a doughnut before freezing. When defrosting,

scrape off thawed meat when the beep sounds and continue defrosting.

• Place foods in a shallow container or on a microwave

roasting rack to catch drippings.

• Food should still be somewhat icy in the center when

removed from the oven.

EXPRESS DEFROST

This feature should be used only when you defrost 1 pound of frozen ground beef.
