[. . . ] To prevent food and grease entering the wave guide it is protected by the waveguide cover. Microwaves cannot pass through metal, because of this the oven cavity is made of metal and there is a fine metal mesh on the door. During cooking the microwaves bounce off the sides of the oven cavity at random. Microwaves will pass through certain materials, such as glass and plastic, to heat the food. Water, sugar and fat in food absorb microwaves which cause them to vibrate. This creates heat by friction, in the same way your hands get warm when you rub them together. The outer areas of the food are heated by the microwave energy, then the heat moves to the centre by conduction, as it does in conventional cooking. It is important to turn, rearrange or stir food to ensure even heating. Once cooking is complete, the oven automatically stops producing microwaves. Standing time is necessary after cooking, as it enables the heat to disperse equally throughout the food. 20 ENGLISH SUITABLE OVENWARE GLASS AND CERAMIC GLASS Heat-resistant glass utensils are very suitable. gold edge, cobalt blue finish). METAL Generally speaking, metal should not be used, since microwaves do not pass through metal and therefore cannot reach the food.

If you are not certain whether your utensil is suitable for the microwave, carry out the utensil suitability test. PORCELAIN Very suitable. Ensure that the porcelain does not have a gold or silver overlay and that it does not contain any metal. PLASTIC AND PAPER UTENSILS N O U T E N S I L S H O U L D H AV E A METAL OVERLAY - parts such as screws, bands or handles.
