Defrosting Guidelines
For Best Results:
1. Place foods in a suitable container. Meat joints and chickens should be placed on an upturned saucer
or on a plastic rack if you have one.
2. Check food during defrosting, as foods vary in their defrosting speed.
3. It is not necessary to cover the whole food.
4. Always turn or stir the food especially when the oven "beeps". Shield if necessary (see point 6).
5. Minced meat, chops and other small items should be broken up or separated as soon as possible and
placed in a single layer.
6. Shielding prevents food cooking. It is essential when defrosting chickens and joints of meat.
The outside thaws out first, so protect wings/breast and fat with smooth pieces of aluminium foil
secured with cocktail sticks.
7. Allow standing time so that the center of the food thaws out. (Minimum of 1 hour for joints of meat and
whole chickens).
Arrange food in a single layer.
