Defrosting Tips
[] Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be time
defrosted in the package, but foods should be taken
out of the package when using Defrost By Food
Type. Closed packages should be slit, pierced or
vented after food has partially defrosted. Plastic
storage containers should be partially uncovered.
[] Family-size, prepackaged frozen dinners can be
defrosted and microwaved. If the food is in a foil
container, transfer it to a microwave-safe dish.
[] Foods that spoil easily should not be allowed to
sit out for more than one hour after defrosting.
Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful
bacteria.
[] For more even defrosting of larger foods, such as
roasts, use Defrost By Time. Be sure large meats
are completely defrosted before cooking.
[] When defrosted, food should be cool but softened in
all areas. If still slightly icy, return to the microwave
very briefly, or let it stand a few minutes.
