TIPS ON DEFROSTING
•
The energy required for defrosting is much
less than for cooking as the microwave
causes the ice formed in the food to melt
rather than heat.
•
Before defrosting meat in the microwave
oven, remove the freezer bag or wrapping
to prevent meat sitting in ‘drip’, which will
otherwise boil as the meat defrosts causing
meat to go grey and begin to stew. To remove
frozen meat from freezer wrappings, defrost
for a few minutes so the wrap is easy to
remove.
•
Remove meat from Styrofoam tray as they are
not microwave-safe.
•
Place meat onto a microwave safe rack and a
drip tray to catch juices.
•
Check the meat throughout the defrosting
time. As outer portions of meat thaw, remove
them. If the edges of meat feel warm, stop
microwaving and allow meat to stand for a
few minutes or until edges are cold again.
•
After defrosting the meat, it must be cooked
right away. Don’t leave it to stand for any
length of time at room temperature or in the
fridge.
DEFROST
The oven allows the defrosting of meat, poultry,
and seafood.
TIME DEFROST
The oven can quickly defrost food based on
the time you entered. Use to defrost frozen
food by time. The defrosting power level is
automatically set once the defrosting time is
inputted.
The maximum defrosting time that can be set
is 95 minutes:
FOR EXAMPLE: To defrost Chicken
1. Press the DEFROST button once.
2. Turn TIME/WEIGHT dial to set cooking
time.
3. Press START/+30 SEC button
