Thawing
Deep frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can
be thawed in the fridge or at room temperature,
depending on the time available. Small food items may
even be cooked from frozen, in this case cooking will
take longer.
Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally
should either be eaten as soon as possible, or thrown
away. Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has not
been completely defrosted it can be cooked and then
refrozen.
Defrosted cooked food must never be
refrozen.

To Make Ice Cubes
1. Fill the ice cube tray
¾
full with cold water, place in
the freezing compartment and leave to freeze.
2. To remove the cubes twist the tray or hold it under
running water for a few seconds.
Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to
the freezer compartment by using pointed or
sharp edged objects.
