Defrosting with the microwave
Recommended settings for using the microwave to defrost food.
Note:
Cooking tips
¡ Use microwave-safe cookware without a lid.
¡ Turn or stir the food 2–3 times during this time. When turning, remove any liquid that escapes during defrosting.
¡ After defrosting, leave the food to rest for 10–60ºminutes.
¡ Delicate parts such as the legs and wings of chicken or fatty outer layers of roasts can be covered with small
pieces of aluminium foil. The foil must not touch the cooking compartment walls. You can remove the foil halfway
through the defrosting time.
¡ Place the frozen food in an open container on the wire rack.
¡ Place the cookware in the centre of the lower wire rack so that the microwaves can reach the food from all sides.
