HINTS: Do not cook/reheat/defrost directly onto the base of the oven –– use a suitable container.
•
When defrosting multi portions of foods, turn over and break apart halfway through defrost time to
allow better penetration of microwave energy.
•
Solid/dense foods should not be cooked from frozen as they will be overcooked round the edges
before the centre has reached the required temperature.
•
Cover dishes where appropriate during cooking/reheating. This will retain moisture and prevent
splashing/spillages.
•
Loosen lids/pierce clingfilm before cooking/reheating covered foods.
•
Stir or shake foods halfway through cooking/defrosting time to distribute the heat evenly.
•
Allow a Stand Time before food temperature is checked and/or offered for consumption.
