Reheating

Select the following microwave power levels to reheat food:

Drinks . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 900 W Food . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 600 W Food for babies and toddlers . 450 Watt

We do not recommend heating or reheating food or drinks for babies or young children in the microwave oven. Any decision to do this is the responsibility of the user, and should only be done with the utmost care. Pasteurised or sterilised cooked food should be gently heated at

450 W, and tasted to make sure it is not too hot for a baby's palate before serving. When reheating other food or drink, heat to a high temperature and allow to cool to a suitable heat for eating. For formula milk follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Tips on reheating

Always use a lid or cover for reheating food, except when a drier finish is needed, e.g. breaded poultry/meat.

Always remove the lids from jars, especially jars of baby food. Loosen the screw cap with the rubber teat before warming baby bottles.

When reheating liquids, place the boiling rod supplied with the appliance into the cup or glass. Never reheat hard boiled eggs in a microwave oven, even without the shell. The eggs can burst.

Food taken straight from the refrigerator will take longer to reheat than food stored at room temperature. The time required depends on the nature of the food, its initial temperature and the amount to be cooked.

Always ensure that food is sufficiently cooked or reheated.

If in any doubt that a sufficiently high temperature has been reached, continue reheating for a little longer.

Stir or turn food from time to time during cooking. Stir the food from the outside towards the middle, as food heats more quickly from the outside.

After reheating

Be careful when removing a dish from the oven. It may be hot.

Although heat is not normally produced in the container itself by the microwaves (apart from stoneware), heat transfer from the food to the container may be considerable, making the container itself hot.

Allow food to stand for a few minutes at room temperature at the end of a reheating process to enable the heat to spread evenly throughout the food.

After heating food, especially food for babies and small children, stir the food or shake the container and check that the temperature does not pose any danger. Double check after it has been left to stand.
