HINTS FOR FROZEN FOODS:

IF THE FOOD IS WARMER than deep-freeze temperature (-18°C), choose shorter time.

IF THE FOOD IS COLDER than deep-freeze temperature (-18°C), choose longer time.

MORE HINTS:

CHECK AND INSPECT THE FOOD REGULARLY.

FROZEN FOOD IN PLASTIC BAGS, plastic films or card-

board packages can be placed directly in the oven as long as the package has no metal parts (e.g. metal twist ties).

THE SHAPE OF THE PACKAGE alters the de-

frosting time. Shallow packets defrost more quickly than a deep block.

SEPARATE PIECES as they begin to defrost. Individual slices defrost more easily.

SHIELD AREAS OF FOOD with small

pieces of aluminum foil if they start to become warm (e.g. chicken legs and wing tips).

BOILED FOOD, STEWS AND MEAT SAUCES defrost better

if stirred during defrosting time.

TURN LARGE JOINTS halfway through the defrosting process.

WHEN DEFROSTING it is better to under- thaw the food slightly and allow the

process to finish during standing time.

STANDING TIME AFTER DEFROSTING ALWAYS IMPROVES

the result since the temperature will then be evenly distributed throughout the food.
