10.1.4 Advice for defrosting and proving
• We recommend positioning frozen foods in a lidless container on the first runner of
the oven.
•
The food must be defrosted without its wrapping.
•
Lay out the foodstuffs to be defrosted evenly, not overlapping.
•
When defrosting meat, we recommend using a rack positioned on the second runner
with the food on it and a tray positioned on the first runner. In this way, the liquid from
the defrosting food drains away from the food.
•
The most delicate parts can be covered with aluminium foil.
• For successful proving, a container of water should be placed in the bottom of the
oven.
