The Defrost function is particularly
suitable for defrosting delicate frozen
foods such as breads, fruit, fish, and
cream gateaux. With the constant
movement of air in the oven, defrosting
is much faster than in still air.
With the Defrost
G
function, the fan
runs but the oven heating systems are
all switched off. It is not possible to
select a temperature.
The time needed for defrosting
depends on the type and weight of the
food, and the temperature it was frozen
at.
Tips on defrosting
– All meat and poultry should be fully
defrosted before cooking. When
defrosting meat or poultry place the
grill pan underneath the rack to
catch the defrosted liquid, so that the
meat is not lying in this liquid. It is
particularly important to observe
food hygiene rules when defrosting
poultry. Do not use the liquid from
defrosted poultry. Pour it away and
wash the tray, the sink and your
hands. Danger of salmonella
poisoning!
– Where possible remove the
packaging and put the food to be
defrosted on a baking tray or into a
suitable dish.
Food which does not contain
juices/water can be defrosted in its
packaging on a baking tray.
– Fish does not need to be fully
defrosted before cooking. Defrost so
that the surface is sufficiently thawed
to take herbs and seasoning.
– Turn, stir or separate food about
half-way through the defrosting time.
– Do not refreeze food once it has
thawed.
– Defrost deep frozen pre-cooked
meals according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
Defrost with the oven door open as
this way cool air is dispelled from the
oven and the intake of warmer air
from the room helps speed up the
defrosting process. The wider the
door is opened the better.
