Defrosting
General instructions for defrosting
1. When defrosting, use only dishes that are
appropriate for microwaves (china, glass,
suitable plastic).
2. The defrost function by weight and the tables
refer to the defrosting of raw food.
3. The defrosting time depends on the quantity
and thickness of the food. When freezing food
keep the defrosting process in mind. Distribute
the food evenly in the container.
4. Distribute the food as best as possible inside
the oven. The thickest parts of fish or chicken
drumsticks should be turned towards the
outside. You can protect the most delicate parts
of food with pieces of aluminium foil.
Important: The aluminium foil must not come
into contact with the oven cavity interior as this
can cause electrical arcing.
5. Thick portions of food should be turned several
times.
6. Distribute the frozen food as evenly as possible
since narrow and thin portions defrost more
quickly than the thicker and broader parts.
7. Fat-rich foods such as butter, cream cheese
and cream should not be completely defrosted.
If they are kept at room temperature they will
be ready to be served in a few minutes. With
ultra-frozen cream, if you find small pieces of
ice in it, you should mix these in before serving.
8. Place poultry on an upturned plate so that the
meat juices can run off more easily.
9. Bread should be wrapped in a napkin so that it
does not become too dry.
10. Turn the food whenever the oven lets out a
beep and the display flashes the word:
.
11. Remove frozen food from its wrapping and do
not forget to take off any metal twist-tags. For
containers that are used to keep frozen food
in the freezer and which can also be used for
heating and cooking, all you need to do is
take off the lid. For all other cases you should
put the food into containers that are suitable
for microwave use.
12. The liquid resulting from defrosting, principally
that from poultry, should be discarded. In no
event should such liquids be allowed to come
into contact with other foods.
13. Do not forget that by using the defrosting
function you need to allow for standing time
until the food is completely defrosted.
