Defrosting tips

Use DEFROST BY FOOD TYPE for meat, poultry and fish. Use DEFROST BY TIME for most other frozen foods.

■Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be defrosted in the package when using DEFROST BY TIME. Foods should be taken out of the package when using DEFROST BY FOOD TYPE. Closed packages should be slit, pierced or vented after food has partially defrosted. Plastic storage containers should be partially uncovered.

■Family-size, prepackaged frozen dinners can be defrosted and microwaved. If the food is in a foil container, transfer it to a microwave-safe dish.

■Foods that spoil easily should not be allowed to sit out for more than one hour after defrosting. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.

■For more even defrosting of larger foods, such as roasts, use DEFROST BY TIME. Be sure large meats are completely defrosted before cooking.

■When defrosted, food should be cool but softened in all areas.

If still slightly icy, return to the microwave very briefly, or let it stand a few minutes.

■When defrosting 3 or more pounds of ground or cubed meat, remove defrosted portions at the turn signals.

You can defrost small items quickly by raising the power level after entering the time. Power level 7 cuts the total defrosting time in about half; power level 10 cuts the total time to about 1/3. When defrosting at high power levels, food will need more frequent attention than usual.
