3. 1 DEFROSTING
· Frozen food in plastic bags, plastic film or cardboard packets can be placed directly in the oven for defrosting as long as the packet has no metal parts (e. g. · Certain foods, such as vegetables and fish, do not require complete defrosting before cooking. · Boiled foods, stews and meat sauces defrost better and more quickly if they are stirred from time to time, turned over and/or separated. · Meat, fish and fruit lose a certain amount of liquid during defrosting. · It is advisable to separate each individual piece of meat into its own bag before putting it into the freezer. · It is important to observe the standing times immediately after defrosting, before cooking; the standing time (in minutes) is the length of time for which the food must be left to stand to allow the heat to continue spreading evenly in the food.

These guidelines are suitable for carrying out the Defrosting Test for mince according to IEC Regulation 705, Par. The block which is to be defrosted should be placed directly on the turntable. Further information, also regarding other Performance Tests according to IEC Regulation 705 is given in the table on page 2.

3. 2 REHEATING
Reheating food is one of the modes in which your microwave oven displays all its usefulness and efficiency. Compared to traditional methods, using a microwave obviously saves time and therefore electricity. · It is advisable to reheat food (especially if it is frozen) to a temperature of at least 70°C (it must be piping hot). This means the food will not be ready to eat immediately because it is too hot!) but it will be completely sterilised. · In order to reheat pre-cooked or frozen food, always observe the following rules: - always remove the food from metal containers - cover it with transparent film (of the kind suitable for microwave ovens) or grease proof paper so that all the natural flavour is preserved and the oven will stay cleaner; the food may also be covered with a an upturned plate; - if possible, stir or turn the food frequently in order to speed up the reheating process and to make it cook more evenly; - follow the cooking times shown on the packet with considerable caution; remember that, under certain conditions, the times shown must be increased. The lower the initial temperature of the food, the longer the reheating time will have to be. Note: some dishes can also easily be reheated by using the "Automatic Functions" pre-memorised recipes (see table on page 41).
