Checking dishes before using them in the microwave

•  Place the dish in the cooking chamber of the oven (a plate, for example) and place a glass cup of water in the center 

of the dish. 

•  Set the microwave to maximum power and heat for no more than one minute. 
•  Carefully touch the dish you are testing: if it heated up and the water in the cup is cold, than the dish should not be 

used in the microwave. 

•  Avoid testing dishes for more than one minute.
