Cooking Guidelines Covering Covering food helps retain moisture, shorten cook time and reduce spattering. Use the lid supplied with cookware. If lid is not available, wax paper, paper towels or plastic wrap approved for microwaves may be used. Plastic wrap should be turned back at one corner to provide an opening to vent steam.
Aluminum Foil and Metal Always use oven mitts or pot holders when removing dishes from the microwave oven. Aluminum foil and some metal can be used in the oven. If not used properly, arcing (a blue flash of light) can occur and cause damage to the oven.
