REHEATING
Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that
conventional ovens hobs normally take.
Use the power levels and reheating times in the following chart as a guide.
The times in the chart consider liquids with a room temperature of about +18
to +20 °C or a chilled food with a temperature of about +5 to +7 °C.
Arranging and covering
Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat – they tend to overcook and dry
out before the centre is piping hot. Reheating small pieces will be more successful.
Power levels and stirring
Some foods can be reheated using 800 W power while others should be
reheated using 600 W, 450 W or even 300 W.
Check the tables for guidance. In general, it is better to reheat food using a
lower power level, if the food is delicate, in large quantities, or if it is likely to
heat up very quickly (mince pies, for example).
Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible,
stir again before serving.
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods. To prevent eruptive
boiling of liquids and possible scalding, stir before, during and after heating.
Keep them in the microwave oven during standing time. We recommend
putting a plastic spoon or glass stick into the liquids. Avoid overheating (and
therefore spoiling) the food.
It is preferable to underestimate cooking time and add extra heating time, if
necessary.
Heating and standing times
When reheating food for the first time, it is helpful to make a note of the time
taken – for future reference.
Always make sure that the reheated food is piping hot throughout.
Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating - to let the temperature
even out. The recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes,
unless another time is recommended in the chart.
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby food. See also the chapter
with the safety precautions.
REHEATING LIQUIDS
Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been
switched off to allow the temperature to even out. Stir during heating, if
necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and
possible scalding, you should put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages
and stir before, during and after heating.
REHEATING BABY FOOD
BABY FOOD:
Empty into a deep ceramic plate. Cover with plastic lid. Stir well
after reheating!
Let stand for 2-3 minutes before serving. Stir again and check the
temperature. Recommended serving temperature: between 30-40 °C.
BABY MILK:
Pour milk into a sterilised glass bottle. Reheat uncovered. Never
heat a baby’s bottle with teat on, as the bottle may explode if overheated.
Shake well before standing time and again before serving ! Always carefully
check the temperature of baby milk or food before giving it to the baby.
Recommended serving temperature: ca. 37 °C.
REMARK:
Baby food particularly needs to be checked carefully before serving to
prevent burns. Use the power levels and times in the next table as a guide
lines for reheating.
