Cooking and Reheating Guidelines

Most foods reheat very quickly in your oven by HIGH power.

Meals can be brought back to serving temperature in just

minutes and will taste freshly cooked and NOT leftover.

Always check food is piping hot and return to oven if

necessary.
As a general rule, always cover wet foods, e.g. soups,

casseroles and plated meals.
Do not cover dry foods e.g. bread rolls, mince pies, sausage

rolls etc.
The charts on pages 23-27 show you the best way to cook

or reheat your favourite foods. The best method depends on

the type of food.
Remember when cooking or reheating any food that it

should be stirred or turned wherever possible. This ensures

even cooking or reheating on the outside and in the centre.

When is food reheated?

Food that has been reheated or cooked should be served

“piping hot” i.e. steam should be visibly emitted from all

parts. As long as good hygiene practices have been followed

during the prepa ra tion and storage of the food, then cooking

or reheating presents no safety risks.
Foods that cannot be stirred should be cut with a knife to

test that they are adequately heated throughout. Even if a

manufac tur erʼs instructions or the times in the cookbook

have been followed, it is still important to check the food is

heated thoroughly. If in doubt, always return to the oven for

further reheating.
If you cannot find the equivalent food in the chart then

choose a similar type and size listed and adjust the cooking

time if necessary.

PLATED MEALS

Everyoneʼs appetite varies

and reheat times depend on

meal contents. Dense items

e.g. mashed potato, should

be spread out well. If a lot of

gravy is added, extra time

may be required. Place

denser items to the outside

of the plate. Between 4-7

mins. on HIGH power will

reheat an average portion

Do not stack meals.

CANNED FOODS

Remove foods from can and

place in a suitable dish

before heating.

SOUPS

Use a bowl and stir before

heating and at least once

through reheat time and

again at the end.

CASSEROLES

Stir halfway through and

again at the end of heating.

MINCE PIES - CAUTION

CHRISTMAS PUDDINGS

AND LIQUIDS - CAUTION

REMEMBER even if the pastry

is cold to the touch, the filling will

be piping hot and will warm the

pastry through. Take care not to

overheat otherwise burning can

occur due to the high fat and

sugar content of the filling.

Check the temperature of the

filling before consuming to avoid

burning your mouth.

BABIES BOTTLES - 

CAUTION

Milk or formula MUST be shaken

thoroughly before heating and

again at the end and tested

carefully before feeding a baby.
For 7-8 fl.oz. of milk from fridge

temperature, remove top and

teat. Heat on HIGH power for

30-50 secs.

CHECK CAREFULLY.
For 3 fl.oz. of milk from fridge

temperature, remove top and

teat. Heat on HIGH power for

15-20 secs.

CHECK CAREFULLY
N.B. Liquid at top of bottle will

be much hotter than at bottom.

The bottle must be shaken

thoroughly and tested before

use.
WE DO NOT RECOMMEND

THAT YOU USE YOUR

MICROWAVE TO STERILISE

BABIESʼ BOTTLES. If you have

a special microwave steriliser we

urge extreme caution, due to the

low quantity of water involved. It

is vital to follow the

manufacturers instructions

implicitly.

Take great care when reheating

these items.
Do not leave unattended.
Do not add extra alcohol.
