Your microwave oven has two automatic programs for
defrosting using the microwave. You need only enter
the program number and the weight. Everything else
is done electronically.
You will find details of suitable food and a weight
range for each program in the tables. You can set any
weight within the weight range.
You can use the 2 defrost programmes to defrost
meat, poultry, fish, bread and cakes.
Use food which has is thinly cut and properly
portioned, and which has been frozen and stored
at 18 ºC.
Remove all packaging from the food to be defrosted,
and weigh the food. You will need to know the weight
in order the set the programme.
Delicate parts, such as the legs and wings of chickens
or fish tails can be covered with small pieces of
aluminium foil. This prevents the food from cooking
too quickly. Ensure that the foil does not touch the
oven walls.
Place the food in a shallow, microwaveable dish,
e.g. a glass or china plate. Do not cover the dish.
The defrosted food should be left to stand for
10 30 minutes to allow the temperature to stabilise.
Large pieces of meat need to stand for longer than
small ones. Thinly cut pieces of meat and mince
should be separated before being left to stand.
The food can then be prepared further, even though
thick pieces of meat may still be frozen in the middle.
With poultry, the giblets can be removed at this point.
