A cover
–
prevents too much steam escaping,
especially when cooking foods which
need longer to cook, such as
potatoes.
–
speeds up the cooking process.
–
prevents food from drying out.
–
prevents any loss of aroma.
–
helps keep the oven interior clean.
Always use lids or covers made of
microwave-safe glass or plastic, or use
a clingfilm recommended for use in a
microwave oven, (pierce as instructed
by the manufacturer).
Unsuitable clingfilm can melt into the
food.
Sealed glass containers, such as
jars of baby food must be opened
before they are placed in the oven.
Do not attempt to heat them up
unopened.
Do not use a cover if
–
food coated with breadcrumbs is
being cooked.
–
cooking meals which are to be given
a crisp finish.
–
using a combination programme.
The cover supplied may only be
used in microwave-solo operation.
The cover can only withstand
temperatures of up to 110 °C.
Higher temperatures generated by
grilling or fan heat could cause the
plastic to distort and fuse with the
food.
