Microwaving Tips
● Make sure all utensils used in
your microwave oven are labeled
“suitable for microwaving”. Check
your Cookbook for specific test to
determine “microwave-safe” uten-
sils.
. Paper towels, wax paper, and
plastic wrap can be used to cover
dishes in order to retain moisture
and prevent spattering.
. Most microwaved foods require
stirring, rotating, or rearranging.
Check your Cookbook for specific
instructions for the food you are
microwaving.
. Some foods such as unshelled
eggs and hot dogs must be
pricked to allow steam to escape
during cooking.
