ABSTRACT:
A container (2) including a paperboard carton (4) for uniformly heating and crisping the top crust of a large food product such as a pot pie having no side and bottom crusts in a microwave oven including a top panel (9) having crisping means (10) separated by a vertical distance of less than 2.7 centimeters from the top surface of the food product. The crisping means (10) consists of a microwave interactive layer for converting microwave energy received on the inner and outer surfaces of the layer into radiant heat for browning and crisping the top surface of the food product. Crisping means (10) also reflects heat radiated by the top surface of the food product back onto that surface for additional browning and crisping. Uniformity of heating is provided by partially shielding the food product during its exposure to microwave energy, thereby also preventing overheating, loss of mass and changes in texture.
