Microwaves cannot penetrate metal. They will bounce off any metal object in the oven and cause arcing, an alarming phenomenon that resembles

lightning. Most heat resistant non metallic cooking utensils are safe for use in your oven. However, some may contain materials that render them

unsuitable as microwave cookware. If you have any doubts about a particular utensil, there's a simple way to find out if it can be used in the

microwave.

Paper plates and containers are convenient and safe to use in using microwave function, provided that the cooking time is short and foods to be

cooked are low in fat and moisture. Paper towels are also very useful for wrapping foods and for lining baking trays in which greasy foods such as

bacon are cooked. In general, avoid coloured paper products as the colour may run. Some recycled paper products may contain impurities which

could cause arcing or fires when used in the microwave.

A variety of shapes and sized of microwave cookware are available. For the most part, you can probably use item you already have on hand

rather than investing in new kitchen equipment.

Containers made of these materials are usually fine for use in using microwave function, but they should be tested to be sure.
