Re-heating cook-chilled foods
•
The food manufacturer's cooking time should be used as a guide only. If, when stated cooking time has
expired, the food isn't piping hot, return it to the oven and cook it until it is. In much the same manner as
you would when cooking with a conventional oven.
•
Always stir food regularly, particularly sauces and casseroles.
•
Standing time is very important, it is part of the cooking process and also allows an even temperature
throughout the food.
