16.2 Tips for defrosting and heating

Follow these tips for good defrosting and reheating results.

16.3 Thawing

You can use your appliance to defrost frozen food.

Defrosting food

1. Place the frozen food in an open container on the turntable. You can cover sensitive parts with small pieces of aluminum foil, such as chicken legs and wings or fatty edges of roasts. The foil must not touch the oven walls.
2. Start the operation. Halfway through the defrosting time, you can remove the aluminum foil.

Note: When you thaw meat and poultry, liquid is created. Remove the liquid when turning and under no circumstances reuse it or allow it to come into contact with other foods.

Turn large pieces several times. To allow the temperature to equalize, allow the defrosted food to rest at room temperature for about 10 to 20 minutes. With poultry, you can remove the innards. You can also process the meat with a small frozen core.
