The two-position wire shelf is specifically designed for added capacity
heating and reheating in your Spacemaker@ microwave oven. Now heat-
ing and reheating,which are the most popular uses of microwave ovens,
may now be done in multiple quantities, so several foods are ready to
serveat the sametime.
When microwaving with the oven shelf, some techniques will differ from
the cookbook which camewith your oven. It is important to arrangefoods
properly, and this is sho~vnon the next page. Utensil size is important;
select from among the suggestions below. Also, food sizeshould be con-
sidered;foods over 3VZ inches high, or 3 pounds are not recommendedfor
shelf cooking.
Batters and dough foods and also foods for oven meals using scratch
recipes should be cooked without the oven shelf, following cookbook
directions.
Use potholders when handling
foods heated together with your
ovenshelf,especiallywhen heating
larger amounts of food in 8 inch
square or other 2 quart size casse-
roles. Extra steam generated from
multiple food cooking may make
utensils hotter than with regular
microwaving.
