Microwave package and support tray with features for uniform crust heating

摘要

Disclosed is a microwave cooking package and tray suitable for cooking food. The package and tray comprise a laminate structure comprising a lid, susceptor layer upon a backing material, and a plurality of apertures through said laminate structure. This permits uniform cooking and browning of dough enrobed food items and venting of excess moisture to help to control heat generation under the food being cooked, as the apertures remove a portion of the susceptor material.
