provided with your browning dish.
Microwaveable plastic wrap — Use to retain
steam. Leave a small opening for some steam
to escape and avoid placing it directly on the
food.

short-term heating and covering; these absorb
excess moisture and prevent spattering. Do not

use recycled paper towels, which may contain
metal and could ignite.

— Use for heating or cooking.
Paper plates and cups — Use for short-term
heating at low temperatures. Do not use
recycled paper, which may contain metal and
could ignite.
Wax paper — Use as a cover to prevent
spattering.
Thermometers — Use only those labeled
"Microwave Safe" and follow all directions.
