General Thawing Instructions
1. Use suitable containers when thawing (porcelain, glass or other material that is suitable for using with
microwave ovens).
2. The Thawing by Weight and Thawing by time tables refer to raw food items and the weights given do
not include the containers.
3. The thawing time will vary depending on the amount and height of the food items. Small amounts will
thaw more easily than large ones.
4. In the case of more delicate food items or those with an irregular shape, it is recommended that the
smaller parts, such as the legs and wings of poultry of fish fins be covered. Aluminium foil should be
used for this and removed after half the thawing time has elapsed. The aluminium foil should be at
least two centimetres from the microwave oven wall, otherwise it will cause sparking.
5. Thick food items should be turned several times.
6. The frozen food items should be evenly distributed inside the microwave oven. Flat food items will
thaw more easily.
7. Food items containing a lot of fat, such as butter or cottage cheese (a dairy product, which is quite
thick), together with cream, should not be completely thawed. Only a few minutes of waiting time are
required so that these are ready to be served and consumed. Cream that was frozen should be
whipped if there are still a few frozen pieces remaining.
8. Poultry should be placed upside down on a small plate so that they are able to drain better.
9. Bread should be wrapped in a serviette to prevent it from drying out.
