MICROWAVE COOKING ADVICE Food Characteristics Composition Foods high in fat or sugar (e.g. Christmas pudding, mince pies) require less heating time. Care should be taken as overheating can lead to fire. Bones in food conduct heat, making the food cook more quickly. Care must be taken so that the food is cooked evenly.
SUITABLE COOKWARE To cook/defrost food in a microwave oven, the microwave energy must be able to pass through the container to penetrate the food. Therefore it is important to choose suitable cookware. Cookware Microwave Safe Aluminium foil Foil Containers Browning dishes China and ceramics Glassware e.g.

Plated meals Remove any poultry or meat portions, reheat these separately, see below. Place smaller items of food to the centre of the plate, larger and thicker foods to the edge.
