Defrosting
Microwaves are an excellent way of defrosting frozen food. Microwaves gently
defrost frozen food in a short period of time. This can be a great advantage, if
unexpected guests suddenly show up.
Frozen poultry must be thoroughly thawed before cooking. Remove any metal ties
and take it out of any wrapping to allow thawed liquid to drain away.
Put the frozen food on a dish without a cover. Turn over half way, drain off any
liquid and remove any giblets as soon as possible. Check the food occasionally to
make sure that it does not feel warm. If smaller and thinner parts of the frozen
food start to warm up, they can be shield by wrapping very small strips of
aluminium foil around them during defrosting.
Should poultry start to warm up on the outer surface, press the Stop button and
allow it to stand for 20 minutes before continuing. Leave the fish, meat and
poultry to stand in order to complete defrosting. The standing time for complete
defrosting will vary depending on the quantity defrosted. Please refer to the table
on the next page.
Hint: Flat food is defrosted better than thicker items, and smaller quantities
need less time than bigger ones. Remember this hint while freezing and
defrosting food.
For defrosting of frozen food with a temperature of about -18 to -20 °C, use the
following table as a guide.
Frozen foods should be defrosted using defrosting power level (180 W).
Place food on ceramic tray, insert ceramic tray in shelf level 1.
