Shopping for Microwave-Safe Utensils

& Other Kitchen Essentials

People often ask, “Do I need to buy new cookware in order to cook in my microwave oven?” The answer is a resounding, “No!” You probably have an array of cookware in your kitchen already that is safe to use in the microwave oven. However, you may want to add to what you already have if you will consistently be cooking in your microwave oven.

The microwave will produce better results with some dishes you cook if you have special utensils designed especially for microwave cooking. Please visit Equipment in the Microwaving Tips section for more detailed information regarding equipment for your microwave, and a test to make sure a dish is microwave-safe!

One of the wonderful features of microwave cooking is that you can cook in the utensil you are going to serve in. If you are going to be entertaining guests, you might want to add a few items that will coordinate well with your table setting. The French White line of CorningWare is a wonderful example of microwave dishes that are functional for cooking, and beautiful for serving.
