Defrosting and cooking
Defrosting with
circotherm
*
Important heating system
For defrosting and cooking of frozen foods,
information
use circotherm.
With all frozen foods, follow the food
manufacturers instructions on the package.
As a rule,
defrosted frozen foods
(especially meats)
require less cooking time than fresh products, since
freezing has a pre-cooking effect.
If
frozen meat
is placed in the oven, the defrosting
time must be added to the required cooking time.
Always defrost
frozen poultry
before cooking
because the giblets must be removed.
For cooking
frozen fish
, use the same temperatures
as for fresh fish.
Frozen ready-to-eat meals
in aluminium dishes
may be placed into the oven several at a time.
Frozen vegetables
(i.e., when cooking complete
meals) should be cooked in a covered pot together
with the roast. Use only approximately half of the
liquid specified in the recipe. Use fat only for adding
flavour.
