Utensils and cooking containers used in a microwave
oven should be of a material that allows microwaves
to pass freely through them. Generally this means
you should use either plastic, glass or ceramic.
Ceramic is an excellent choice, most types of glass
is also very good. Lead crystal can crack, therefore it
should not be used. Coloured glass or decorative
glass should not be used since metal, for example;
gold, might be a part of the decoration and may
cause arching.
Round or oval shaped containers give the most even
cooking. Square containers may over cook food in
the corners due to more energy being absorbed
there.
Metal containers should not be used. Microwaves
cannot penetrate metal, they bounce off any metal
object and cause arching which resembles lightning.
Note: there are a number of microwave oven
accessories available on the market, before you buy,
please make sure they are suitable for microwave
use.
Note: when putting food into the microwave oven,
make sure that the food, food containers or covering
do not come in contact with any of the cavity walls or
ceiling.

lemon in a deep bowl, microwave for 5
minutes. Wipe thoroughly with a soft dry
