DefrostiW Guide

1.Food packagd in all-paper or plastic packages may be defrosted without unwrapping. If food is foil wrapped, remove foil and place food in cooking dish for defrosting.

2.After first half of defrosting time, unwrap package and check food. Turn food over, if necessary; break apart or separate food if possible. On very large foods like turkey, some shielding of thin wing or leg areas may be necessary.

3.Be sure large meats are completely defrosted (or, on roasts allow extra microwaving time). Turkeys may be placed under running water until giblets can be removed.

4.When defrosted, food should be cool but softened in all areas. If still slightly icy, return to microwave oven very briefly, or let stand a few minutes.
