Do not reheat food in the oven in heat-retaining bags
intended for normal ovens. These heat-retaining bags
usually contain a thin layer of aluminium foil which
reflects microwaves. This reflected energy can, in turn,
cause the outer paper covering to become so hot that
it ignites.
~
Eggs can be cooked without their shells using
microwave power only if the yolk membrane has been
punctured several times first. The pressure could
otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode.
~
Eggs can only be cooked in their shells in the
microwave oven in a specially designed egg-boiling
device available from specialist shops. Hard-boiled
eggs should not be reheated in the microwave oven as
this may lead to the eggs bursting even after they have
been taken out of the appliance.
~
Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes,
sausages, jacket potatoes and aubergines, should be
pierced or the skin cut in several places before cooking
to allow steam to escape and prevent food from
bursting.
