Microwave Cooking Advice
GENERAL NOTES
DO NOT
DO
Eggs
Do not cook eggs in shells, hard
or soft-boiled eggs in the
microwave oven as they may
explode.
Puncture the egg yolks before
cooking, cover and allow standing
time of at least one minute before
removing utensil cover.
Foods with peel or skin
Foods with peel or skins such as
potatoes, tomatoes, sausages,
apples may burst during cooking.
Pierce skins before cooking. This
will allow steam to escape and
prevent the food from bursting.
Baby food
Do not heat baby food in original
jars.
Do not overheat baby bottles.
Only heat till warm.
Transfer baby food to small dish
and heat carefully, stirring often.
Remove the screw cap and teat
before warming the baby bottles.

Canned foods
Do not cook or heat up food and
liquids in sealed containers/cans
as pressure can build up and they
may explode posing a severe risk
of injury.
Remove food from sealed
containers/cans. Transfer to
suitable utensil/dish.
Popcorn
Do not use regular brown bags,
plastic bags or glass bowl to pop
popcorn.
Do not exceed the maximum time
indicated on popcorn package.
Use specially bagged popcorn for
the microwave oven.
Liquids and beverages
Do not heat longer than the
recommended time.
Microwave heating of liquids such
as soups, beverages, sauces etc
can result in delayed eruptive
boiling. The boiling point of the
liquid may be reached without
evident production of bubbles.
The liquid does not boil evenly
throughout. “Boiling delay” can
cause a sudden build-up of
bubbles when the container is
removed from the microwave or
shaken. This could lead to
sudden boil over of the hot liquid
resulting in danger of burning.
Select the appropriate cooking time
and power level. If you are unsure,
begin with low power level and
cooking time, slowly increase the
setting until the food is sufficiently
heated throughout.
Stir the liquid before and during
cooking.
After heating, allow to stand in the
oven for a short time.
Exercise caution when handling the
container.
Turntable
Do not operate the microwave
oven without the turntable in
place.
Do not cook, reheat or defrost
food directly on the turntable for
cooking.
Always place food in suitable
utensil/dish.
Check that the utensil/dish is not
larger in size than the turntable.
Utensils
Do not use containers made from
metal, aluminium foil, lead crystal
glassware or bowls with metallic
trim. These items could be
damaged or cause a fire hazard.
Avoid using containers with
restrictive openings (narrow
necks).
Check that utensils are suitable for
microwave cooking before using
them.
Aluminium foil
Do not use too much aluminium
foil or sparkling may occur.
Narrow strips of aluminum foil may
be used to shield food from
overheating. Keep to smaller pieces
of aluminium foil.
Keep aluminium foil clear of cavity
walls (minimum 1” between foil and
cavity to avoid sparks.

Suitable cooking utensils for microwave ovens
To cook or defrost food in a microwave oven, the microwave energy must be able to pass through the cooking
utensils to penetrate the food.
The material and shape of containers affect cooking results and durations. Heat distribution is more even in
round/oval shaped containers than in square/oblong containers as the food in the corners tend to overcook.

Microwave cooking tips
Place the thickest parts of food towards the outside of the dish.
Use a microwave-safe lid or microwave-safe cling wrap to cover the food during cooking. Covering the food
speeds up the cooking process and prevents food from drying out. Note: Do not use a cover if cooking food
coated with breadcrumbs, or cooking food with a crisp finish.
It is advisable to turn, rearrange or stir food during cooking to ensure even heating. Always stir or turn food
from the outside towards the middle, as food heats more quickly from the outside.
Food with thick peel or skin must be pierced before cooking to allow steam to escape and prevent the food
from bursting.
Standing time is necessary after cooking to enable the heat to disperse evenly throughout the food.
Chilled food will take longer to cook than food at room temperature. Always ensure that food is sufficiently
cooked or reheated. If in doubt that a sufficiently high temperature has been reached, continue reheating for a
little longer.
The cooking time must be increased with increased amount of food placed. Example, four sausages will take
longer to cook than two.
Defrosting
Remove the food from its packaging and place in a microwave-safe utensil/dish. Do not cover the food.
To defrost meat, unpack the frozen food and place it on an upturned utensil/dish so that the meat juice can
run off and be collected. Turn halfway through defrosting.
Fish does not need to be fully defrosted before cooking. Defrost so that the surface is sufficiently soft to take
herbs and seasoning.
