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 900 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.
