The microwave
Microwaves are converted to heat in foodstuffs. The
microwave can be used solo, i.e. on its own, or in
combination with a different type of heating. You will
find information about cookware and how to set the
microwave.
Note
In the Tested for your in our cooking studio section,
you will find examples for defrosting, heating and
cooking with the microwave oven.
Suitable dishes are heatĆresistant ovenware
made of glass, glass ceramic, porcelain, ceramic or
heatĆresistant plastic. These materials allow
microwaves to pass through.
You can also use serving dishes. This saves you
having to transfer food from one dish to another.
You should only use ovenware with decorative gold or
silver trim if the manufacturer guarantees that they are
suitable for use in microwaves.
Metal ovenware is unsuitable.
Metal does not allow microwaves to pass through.
Food in covered metal containers will remain cold.
Caution Metal Ć e.g. a spoon in a glass Ć must be kept
at least 2 cm from the oven walls and the inside of the
door. Sparks could destroy the glass on the inside of
the door.
Do not switch on the microwave unless there is food
inside.
The following ovenware test is the only exception to
this rule.
