Weight defrost Cooking

Defrosting frozen food is one of the benefits of a
microwave oven. Defrosting using a microwave
oven is much faster than in the refrigerator and
safer than at room temperature, as it does not
promote the growth of harmful bacteria.
It is important to remember that defrosting
takes longer than normal cooking. Check
the food, turning it over at least once during
defrosting.

Auto defrost

The temperature and density of food varies, I would
recommend that the food is checked before cooking
commences. Pay particular attention to large joints
of meat and chicken, some foods should not be
completely thawed before cooking. The BREAD
programme is suitable for defrosting small items such
as rolls or a small loaf. These will require a standing
time to allow the centre to Thaw. In the following
example I will show you how to defrost 1.4 Kg of
frozen poultry.
