Defrosting with Microwave

1. When defrosting, use only dishes that are safe for microwave oven use.
2. The defrost function by weight and the tables refer to the defrosting of raw food.
3. The defrosting time depends on the quantity and thickness of the food.
4. Distribute the food well. You can use aluminum foil for delicate food.
5. Important: The aluminum foil should not come into contact with the oven inner cavity of the
oven.
6. Thick portions of food should be turned over several times in the process of cooking.
7. Distribute the frozen food as evenly as possible since narrow and thin portions defrost
more quickly than the thicker and broader parts.
8. Fat-rich foods such as butter, cheese and cream should not be completely defrosted. If
they are kept at room temperature they will be ready to be served in a few minutes. With
ultra-frozen cream, if you find small pieces of ice in it, you should mix these in before
serving.
9. Place poultry on an upturned plate so that the meat juices can run off more easily.
10. Bread should be wrapped in a napkin so that it does not become too dry.
11. Remove frozen food from its wrapping and do not forget to take off any metal twist-tags.
For containers that are used to keep frozen food in the freezer and which can also be
used for heating and cooking, all you need to do is take off the lid. For all other cases you
should put the food into containers that are safe for microwave oven use.
12. The liquid resulting from defrosting, principally that from poultry should be discarded. In no
event should such liquids be allowed to come into contact with other foods.
13. Do not forget that by using the defrosting function you need to allow for standing time until
the food is completely defrosted.
14. In defrost process, please turn food over when microwave oven alarms and displays
"turn".
