9.7.5 Lids
We recommend you use glass or plastic lids or cling film since:
1. This will stop excessive evaporation (mainly during very long cooking
times);
2. The cooking times are shorter;
3. The food does not become dry;
4. The aroma is preserved.
The lid should have holes or openings so that no pressure develops.
Plastic bags must also be opened. Baby feeding bottles or jars with baby
food and similar containers can only be heated without their tops / lids
otherwise they can burst.
The table below gives you a general idea of what type of ovenware is
suitable for each situation.
