Cookware guide
To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to penetrate the food,

Care must therefore be taken when choosing the cookware. If the cookware is marked
microwave-safe, you do not need to worry.
The following table lists various types of cookware and indicates whether and how they
should be used in a microwave oven.
