Defrosting using the automatic programmes
You can use the 4 defrosting programmes to defrost
meat, poultry and bread.
Notes
■
Preparing food
Use food that has been frozen at -18 °C and stored
in portion-sized quantities that are as thin as
possible.
Take the food to be defrosted out of all packaging
and weigh it. You need to know the weight to set the
programme.
■
Liquid will be produced when defrosting meat or
poultry. Drain off this liquid when turning meat and
poultry and under no circumstances use it for other
purposes or allow it to come into contact with other
foods.
■
Ovenware
Place the food in a microwaveable shallow dish,
e.g. a china or glass plate, but do not cover.
■
Resting time
The defrosted food should be left to stand for an
additional 10 to 30 minutes until it reaches an even
temperature. Large pieces of meat require a longer
standing time than smaller pieces. Flat pieces of
meat and items made from minced meat should be
separated from each other before leaving to stand.
After this time, you can continue to prepare the food,
even though thick pieces of meat may still be frozen
in the middle. The giblets can be removed from
poultry at this point.
■
Signal
For some programmes, a signal sounds after a
certain time. Open the appliance door and separate
the food out or turn the meat or poultry. Close the
door and press the Start button.
Cooking with the automatic programmes
With the 3 cooking programmes, you can cook rice,
potatoes or vegetables.
Notes
■
Ovenware
The food must be cooked in microwaveable
cookware with a lid. For rice, you should use a large,
deep dish.
■
Preparing food
Weigh out the food. You need to know the weight to
set the programme.
Rice:
Do not use boil-in-the-bag rice. Add the required
amount of water, as specified on the packaging. This
is usually two or three times the quantity of rice.
Potatoes:
For boiled potatoes, cut the fresh potatoes into
small, even-sized pieces. Add one tablespoon of
water for each 100 g boiled potatoes, and a little
salt.
Fresh vegetables:
Weigh out the fresh, trimmed vegetables. Cut the
vegetables into small, even-sized pieces. Add a tbsp
water for each 100 g vegetables.
■
Signal
While the programme is running, a signal sounds
after some time. Stir the food.
■
Resting time
Once the programme has finished, stir the food
again. You should leave it to stand for another
5 to 10 minutes until it reaches an even temperature.
The cooking result will depend on the quality and
consistency of the food.
