The Clever Way A Paper Plate Can Keep Your Microwave Clean
By SASKIA AINSWORTH
Paper plates are the perfect candidates when it comes to keeping your microwave clean. If you place a paper plate over your food in the microwave, it should act as a safeguard.
Take a clean, 100% paper plate and slide it over the food you’re heating up. This trick works well with bowls or cups, just don’t put it directly on the food it’s touching.
When you heat foods such as soups or curries, they can have a tendency to bubble over. In this case, the paper plate acts as a barrier to prevent a mess in your microwave.
To prevent any danger, stick to the two-minute mark or less when heating food in the microwave so you can avoid flames from bursting out. Also, make sure the paper plate is clean.
