HOW TO USE THE MANUAL DEFROST
Follow
the procedure for ”How to use the
microwaves” and choose Power Level 160 W
when defrosting manually.
Check and inspect the food regularly
.
Experience will give you the times needed for
various amounts.
GENERAL HINTS:
Frozen food in plastic bags
, plastic fi lms or
cardboard packages can be placed directly in
the oven as long as the package has no metal
parts (e.g. metal twist ties).
Turn large joints
halfway through the
defrosting process.
The shape of the package
alters the
defrosting time. Shallow packets defrost more
quickly than a deep block.
Separate pieces
as they begin to defrost.
Individual slices defrost more easily.
Shield areas of food
with small
pieces of aluminum foil if they
start to become warm (e.g.
chicken legs and wing tips).
Boiled food, stews and meat sauces
defrost
better if stirred during defrosting time.
When defrosting
it is better to under-thaw
the food slightly and allow the process to fi nish
during standing time.
Standing time after defrosting
always improves the result
since the temperature will
then be evenly distributed
throughout the food.
