EXPRESS DEFROST CHART
This is specially designed for smaller cuts of food. The following foods should be used on the express defrost
programme.
1.Beef Steak
2.Lamb Chops
3.Pork Chops
The oven is pre-programmed with a time and power level cycle so that the food listed above is defrosted easily.
BASIC IDEAS FOR EXPRESS DEFROST
- Always allow food to stand for approx. 10-30 minutes after defrosting to equalise the temperature and to
produce better defrosting results.
- Check food after standing. If the item is not thoroughly defrosted, continue to defrost on 20% power for
additional time.
- Choose foods that are the same thickness throughout. This will produce better defrosting results. Foods
which vary in thickness may require shielding with small flat pieces of tin foil to prevent over-defrosting.
- For foods not listed in the chart refer to the manual defrosting chart.
- When freezing chicken pieces, steak, chops and fish, freeze separately in single flat layers and if
necessary interleave with freezer plastic to seperate layers. This will ensure even defrosting.
