cooking guide

Guide for manual defrosting

Microwaves are an excellent way of defrosting frozen food. Microwaves gently defrost

frozen food in a short period of time. This can be of great advantage, if unexpected

guests suddenly show up. Frozen poultry must be thoroughly thawed before cooking.

Remove any metal ties and take it out of any wrapping to allow thawed liquid to drain

away. Put the frozen food on a microwave-safe plate without cover. Turn over half

way, drain o any liquid and remove any giblets as soon as possible. Check the food

occasionally to make sure that it does not feel warm. If smaller and thinner parts of

the frozen food start to warm up, they can be shield by wrapping very small strips of

aluminum foil around them during defrosting. Should poultry start to warm up on the

outer surface, stop thawing and allow it to stand for 30 minutes before continuing. Leave

the meat, poultry and ﬁsh to stand in order to complete defrosting. The standing time

for complete defrosting will vary depending on the quantity defrosted. Please refer to the

table below.

Hint: Flat food defrosts better than thick and smaller quantities need less time

than bigger ones. Remember this hint while freezing and defrosting food.

For defrosting of frozen food with a temperature of about -18 to -20 °C,

use the following table as a guide. All frozen food should be defrosted

using defrosting power level (30 %).
