DEFROSTING ADVICE

Using your microwave oven is the quickest

defrosting method.

It is a simple process but the following

instructions are essential to ensure the food is

thoroughly defrosted.

• Remove all packaging and wrapping before

defrosting.

•To defrost food, use microwave power levels

30% or 10%.

• Please refer to the defrosting chart on page 35

for further information.

Rearrange

Separate

Shield

Stand

Turn over

Foods that are placed towards the outside of the dish will defrost quicker than

foods in the centre. It is therefore essential that the food is rearranged up to 4

times during defrosting.

Move closely packed pieces from the outside to the centre and rearrange

over-lapping areas.

This will ensure that all parts of the food defrosts evenly.

Foods may be stuck together when removed from the freezer. It is important

to separate foods as soon as it is possible during defrosting.

e.g. bacon rashers, chicken fillets.

Some areas of food being defrosted may become warm. To prevent them

becoming warmer and starting to cook, these areas can be shielded with small

pieces of foil, which reflect microwaves, e.g. legs and wings on a chicken.

Standing time is necessary to ensure food is thoroughly defrosted.

Defrosting is not complete once the food is removed from the microwave

oven. Food must stand, covered, for a length of time to ensure the centre has

completely defrosted.

It is essential that all foods are turned over up to 4 times during defrosting.

This is important to ensure thorough defrosting.
