10.2 Microwave
recommendations
Place the food on a plate on the bottom
of the cavity.
Turn or stir the food halfway through the
defrosting and cooking time.
Cover the food for cooking and
reheating.
Put the spoon to the bottle or glass when
heating drinks to ensure better heat
distribution.
Put the food into the oven without any
packaging. The packaged ready meals
can be put into the oven only when the
packaging is microwave safe (check
information on the packaging).
Microwave cooking
Cook food covered. If you want to keep a
crust cook food without a cover.
Do not overcook the dishes by setting
the power and time too high. The food
can dry out, burn or cause fire.
10.3 Microwave suitable cookware and materials
For the microwave use only suitable cookware and materials. Use below table as a
reference.
Cookware / Material
Ovenproof glass and porcelain with
no metal components, e.g. heat-
proof glass
Non-ovenproof glass and porcelain
without any silver, gold, platinum or
other metal decorations
Glass and glass ceramic made of
ovenproof / frost-proof material
Ceramic and earthenware without any
quartz or metal components and gla-
zes which contain metal
Ceramic, porcelain and earthenware
with unglazed bottom or with small
holes, e.g. on handles
Do not use the oven to cook eggs or
snails in their shells, because they can
burst. Pierce the yolk of fried egg before
reheating it.
Pierce food with skin or peel with a fork
several times before cooking.
Cut vegetables into similar-sized pieces.
Stir liquid dishes from time to time.
Stir the food before serving.
After you turn off the oven, take the food
out and let it stand for a few minutes.
Microwave defrosting
Put the frozen, unwrapped food on a
small upturned plate with a container
below it, or on a defrosting rack or
plastic sieve so that the defrosting liquid
can run off.
Remove defrosted pieces subsequently.
To cook fruit and vegetables without
defrosting them first, you can use a
higher microwave power.
