Reheating
75
Stir or turn larger amounts of food from
time to time during reheating. Stir the
food from the outside towards the
middle, as food heats more quickly
around the outside.
After reheating
Be careful when removing the dish
from the oven. It may be hot.
Although heat is not normally produced
in the container itself by the
microwaves (apart from stoneware),
heat transfer from the food to the
container may be considerable, making
the container itself hot.
Allow food to stand for a few minutes at
room temperature at the end of
cooking. This enables the heat to
spread evenly through the food.
Risk of burning due to hot food.
The food can be very hot after
reheating.
After reheating food, especially food
for babies and small children, stir the
food or shake the container and
check that the temperature does not
pose any danger.
