Warming
The warming and heating of food is a particular strength
of the microwave. Liquids and foods that are in the
refrigerator can be easily brought up to room temperature
or the right temperature for consumption without the need
for many pots.
The heating times contained in the following table are
only rough guides as the time depends very much on the
starting temperature and the composition of the food. You
are therefore advised to check from time to time whether
the dish is already hot enough.
