Reheating
Your MWO can reheat food, taking lesser time than conventional ovens/hobs normally take.
Use the power levels and reheating times in the following table as a guide (Table: 03). The
time in the table considers liquids with a room temperature of about +18 to +20°C or chilled
food with a temperature of about +5 to +7°C.
Arranging and covering
Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat — they tend to overcook and dry out before
the centre is piping hot. It is far better to reheat small pieces.
