Use some aluminum foil and build a little base for whatever you are

Interesting! Do you do that or is it only a suggestion? I thought you'd
get
electrical arching if you insert something metallic of the wrong size into
a microwave...

Well, that's true enough.

But hell, think of the light show!!!

Sorry - I was bored. :)


This got me to read up on metal in microwaves. My (combi-) microwave is
actually fitted with a metal grate also used for grilling and in the
instructions they ADVISE putting a metal spoon in any glass of liquid you
want to microwave to avoid superheating.
It turns out you actually gave some sort of useable answer - in spite of
yourself :-)

I just have to get some solid tin foil and attach it to my grilling grate,
which is not very difficult.
