• Place the empty container you want to
test and another container filled with wa-
ter inside the oven.
• Run the oven at high power for one
minute. If the water is warm and the con-
tainer you are testing is cold, then the
container is suitable for the microwave.
• On the other hand, if the water is cold and
the container next to it gets hot, then mi-
crowaves have been absorbed by the
container and this container is not suit-
able for microwave use.
Glass containers
• Do not use thin glass or lead crystal con-
tainers. Heatproof containers are suitable
for microwave ovens. But do not use fra-
gile glass containers like water and wine
glasses, materials of which can be
broken when heated, in the microwave
oven.
Plastic containers
• Do not hold containers and dishes made
of plastic or melamine in the microwave
for too long; that goes for the plastic
bags used to hold frozen food as well.
The reason behind that is, the heat of a
hot meal will eventually melt and deform
the material. Use these types of material
in the microwave for just a limited
amount of time.
Cooking bags
• Cooking bags can be used in the mi-
crowave oven as long as they are de-
signed for cooking. Do not forget to

pierce the bags to allow the steam inside
to escape. Do not use regular plastic
bags for cooking as they will melt and
open.
Paper
• Do not use any type of paper for pro-
longed cooking. This will cause the paper
to burst into flames. Paper plates are
only good for oily or dry food that re-
quires small amount of time to cook.
• Do not use recycled paper. These papers
may have molecules that may cause
arches.
Wooden and wicker containers
• Large wooden containers should not be
used, as the microwave causes the wood
structure to dry out and become brittle.
Porcelain containers
• Generally, containers made of these
types of material are good to use inside
microwave ovens, but you need to test it
to be sure.
Metal containers
• Metal containers reflect microwaves
away from food. So do not use them.
Certain cookware with high iron
and lead content is not suitable for
use in microwave ovens. Be sure to
check if your containers are mi-
crowave-safe.
