How Your Microwave Oven Works Oven thy Microwave ovens are safe. Microwave energy is not hot. It causes food to make its own heat, and it’s this heat that cooks the food. Microwaves are like TV waves or light waves. You can’t see them, but you can see what they do. The glass turntable of your microwave oven lets microwaves through. Then they bo[...]

Operating Safety Precautions To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the microwave oven, follow the precautions on page 3437.

Some of the recipes, particularly those for breads, cakes, and meats suggest that food be removed from the oven when it is still slightly under- cooked. This is not a mistake. When allowed to stand, the food will continue to cook outside the oven, as the heat trapped within the outer portions of the food gradually travels inward. If the food is lef[...]

Turning Over: Larger sized food such as roasts and whole poultry should be turned over so that the top and bottom will cook evenly. It is also a good idea to turn over chicken pieces and chops. Piercing: To prevent bursting, food enclosed in a shell, skin or membrane must be pierced prior to cooking. Such foods include both the yolks and whites of [...]

5. Microwave-Safe Utensils Never use metal or metal-trimmed utensils in your microwave oven. Microwaves cannot penetrate metal. They will bounce off any metal object in the oven and cause “arcing”, which resembles lightn- ing. Most heat-resistant, nonmetallic cooking uten- sils are safe for use in your microwave oven. However, some may contain [...]
