Microwave-Safe Containers and tips to use MW.

Krishnamma,

I am really fine. thanks for asking. thanks for the mention of the blogs. I was on vacation with veda for the last two months so not much into IL.

I waited, as I also wanted to know if you had a better answer.

Hey I hope Saraswathi convinces you to post a photo of you here. now that you have shifted to blore, don't know when i can see you. Ramya told me you were her neighbour. only then came to know how very close we have been..
may be we can meet when you come down next time.

 

Krishnamma,

Veda is fine. we enjoyed the 2 months. I remembered your mentioning madipakkam but by the time I settled in chennai you had shifted to bangalore.
My bad luck i suppose???

Yes. let us have a nice time during your next visit.

 

dear shanthi,
thank u for sharing. will try according to ur tips and let u know.
as u said there is an option for cooking rice but nothing is available for roasting.
One small doubt, any vessel which is kept in the microwave gets hot(tried borosil bowl also). i cant get the vessel out with bare hands. is there any problem in the mw or is it common? sorry to ask such silly qns. plz bear with me.

thank u in advance,
vidhya

 

dear krishnamma,

first of all thanks for ur welcome. i am new to this site but found very warm and useful. ur microwave tips are useful. but still not using to the optimum.

regards,
vidhya

Hi Vidya,

Sorry for not replying immediately. Just checked using a ceramic mug in heating. the mug gets heated to a excent.

Some dishes don't get hot when microwaved. and some do. as long as the dish is microwave safe it is fine to use. always use a glove to keep you from burning or scalding (by spillig of hot liquid) until you are used to cooking in the mw.

You can make a good veg biryani, pulao in the MW.

REgarding roasting, you can still turn the dish few times and roast it on the MW mode also. It all depends on how well roasted u want them.

One word of caution when using borosil/ or any glass bowls , be careful that there is no water on the outerside of the glass and also when u take it out of the MW, ensure there is no water or liquid at the place where u place it..as the glass will break.
