Testing utensils
If you are not sure whether a dish is microwave-safe or not, you can perform this
test:
1.
Fill a 1 cup glass measuring cup with
water and put it inside your oven, next
to the dish you want to test.
2.
Set the microwave to 1 minute using
the
numeric
buttons, and then touch
the
START
button. This will heat the
glass and dish for one minute at High
power.
When the microwave stops, the water
should be warm and the dish you are
testing should be cool.
If the dish is warm, then it is absorbing
microwave energy and is not acceptable for
use in the microwave.
