Defrosting with the microwave
Note:
Cooking tips
¡ Freeze the food flat.
¡ Use microwave-safe cookware without a lid.
¡ Place the cookware on the bottom of the cooking compartment.
¡ Turn or stir the food 2–3 times during this time. When turning, remove any liquid that escapes during defrosting.
¡ Liquid is produced when defrosting meat or poultry. When turning, drain off any liquid. Do not use this for other
purposes or allow it to come into contact with other foods.
¡ After turning, remove any minced meat that has already defrosted.
¡ Separate any defrosted parts when turning.
¡ After defrosting, leave the food to rest for 10–60ºminutes.
