Defrost
Fish and seafood can be defrosted and heated successfully in this microwave oven. To defrost evenly, fish should be arranged in a single layer in container and should only be thawed to the point of being flexible so it does not begin to cook at the edges.
Primary Cooking
Cooking individual portions demands close attention as well as slight ubdercooking. Delicate fish and shellfish should always be undercooked and should from rest after heating.
