The above info covered almost all of it, and the pyrex with a handle is a brilliant solution. Be very cautious about plastics in the microwave though; I just came back with excessively high, almost toxic levels of cadmium in my bloodwork, and the doctor is fairly certain most of this is from my propensity for using plastic bottles, cups, and dishes in the microwave to re-heat food.
And since it takes the body a long time to break down and get rid of cadmium it's not worth the risks. If my levels don't start decreasing I may need chelation therapy.
