REHEATING ADVICE
For the reheating of foods, follow the advice and guidelines below to ensure food is thor-
oughly reheated before serving.
Plated meals Remove any poultry or meat portions, reheat these sep-
arately, see below.
Place smaller items of food to the centre of the plate, larger
and thicker foods to the edge. Cover with vented micro-
wave cling film and reheat on MEDIUM, stir/ rearrange half-
way through reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the food is thoroughly reheated before serv-
Sliced meat
Cover with vented microwave ding film and reheat on ME-
DIUM. Rearrange at least once to ensure even reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the meat is thoroughly reheated before serv-
Poultry por-
Place thid<est parts of the portions to the outside of the
tions
dish, cover with vented microwave cling film and reheat on
MEDIUM HIGH.Turn over halfway through reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the poultry is thoroughly reheated before
Casseroles
Cover with vented microwave cling film or a suitable Iid and
reheat on MEDIUM.
Stir frequently to ensure even reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the food is thoroughly reheated before serv-
To achieve the best results when reheating, select a suitable microwave power level appropri-
ate to the type of food. e.g.A bowl of vegetables can be reheated using HIGH, while a lasagne
which contains ingredients that cannot be stirred, should be reheated using MEDI UM.
NOTES:
• Remove food from foil or metal containers before reheating.
• Reheating times will be affected by the shape, depth, quantity and tern perature of food
together with the size, shape and material of the container.
Never heat Iiquids in narrow-necked containers, as this could result in the
contents erupting from the container and may cause burns.
• To avoid overheating and fire, special care must be taken when reheating foods with a high
sugar or fat content, e.g. minee pies or Christmas pudding.
• Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as this may lead to overheating and fire.
• Canned potatoes should not be heated in the microwave oven, follow the manufacturer's
instructions on the can.
The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or
shaken and the temperature is to be checked before consumption to
avoid burns.
