- Integrated handle ensures safe and effortless removal from the microwave.
Suggested Cooking Times (Approximate)
Please heat using the standard microwave mode (not grill or convection).
After microwaving, keep the lid on and let the eggs cook through with the remaining heat.
Avoid using microwaves stronger than 700W.
