• Frozen foods in plastic bags, film, or oven ready containers can be placed directly in the oven.
Check first that there are no metal objects like staples or ties.
• Certain foods, like vegetables and fish, do not need to be fully defrosted before cooking.
• Foods in meat and other sauces defrost quicker and more evenly if they are stirred, turned and/or
separated occasionally.
• During defrosting, meat, fish and fruit lose liquid.
Always place these foods in a bowl to defrost.
• You are recommended to divide meat and place individual pieces in separate bags when
freezing.
This will save you valuable time during preparation.
• Always use caution when following the times given on frozen food packs as they are not always
correct.
You are recommended to use slightly shorter defrosting times than those given.
Defrosting time depends on the degree of freezing.
