REHEATING
Yourmicrowaveoven will reheatfood ina fractionof the time that conventionalovens
normallytake.
Usethe power levelsand reheatingtimesin the following chartas a guide. The times in
the chart considerliquidswith a room temperatureof about 65-68 °F or a chilledfood
with a temperatureof about 41-45 °R
Arranging and covering
Avoidreheatinglargeitems suchas joint of meat - they tend to overcookand dry out
beforethe centeris pipinghot. Reheatingsmallpieces will be more successful.
Power levels and stirring
Some foods can be reheatedusing 90 % power while othersshould be reheatedusing
60 %, 50 %, or even 30 %.
Check the tablesfor guidance.
In general,it is better to reheatfood usinga lowerpower level,if the food is delicate, in
largequantities,or if it is likelyto heatup very quickly (mincepies,for example),
Stirwell or turn food overduring reheatingfor best results,When possible,stir again
beforeserving,
Takeparticularcare when heatingliquidsand baby foods. To preventeruptiveboilingof
liquidsand possiblescalding,stir, before,during,and after heating,Keepthem in the
microwaveovenduring standingtime. We recommendputting a plastic spoon or glass
stick into the liquids.Avoidoverheating(and thereforespoiling)the food,
It is preferableto underestimatecooking time and add extra heatingtime, if necessary.
Heating and standing times
When reheatingfood for the first time, it is helpfulto make a noteof the time taken for
future reference.
Always make surethat the reheatedfood is piping hot throughout,
Allow food to stand for a short time after reheatingto let the temperatureeven out.
The recommendedstandingtime after reheatingis 2-4 minutes,unlessanothertime is
recommendedin the chart.
Takeparticularcare when heatingliquidsand baby food. Seealso the chapterwith the
