"Defrost G"
For defrosting meat and delicate food
we recommend defrosting at room tem-
perature, i.e. without selecting an oven
temperature.
However, an oven temperature of up to
50°C can be selected.
– Where possible remove the packag-
ing and put the food to be defrosted
on a baking tray or into a dish.
– All meat and poultry should be fully
defrosted before cooking. Do not use
the liquids from defrosting.
– When defrosting poultry put it on the
rack over the grill pan to catch the
defrosted liquid, so that the meat is
not lying in this liquid.
It is particularly important to observe
food hygiene rules when defrosting
poultry. Do not use the liquid from
the defrosted poultry. Pour it away,
and wash the tray, the sink and your
hands. Danger of salmonella.
– Fish does not need to be fully de-
frosted before cooking. Defrost so
that the surface is sufficiently thawed
to take herbs and seasoning.

The time needed for defrosting de-
pends on the type and weight of the
food, and at what temperature it was
deep frozen.
