Cooking and Reheating Guidelines

Plated Meals

Everyoneʼs appetite varies and reheat times depend on meal contents. Dense items e.g. mashed potato, should be spread out well. If a lot of gravy is added, extra time may be required. Place denser items to the outside of the plate. Between 3-5 mins. on HIGH power will reheat an average portion. If stacking two meals, heat on HIGH power for 6-7 mins. and change the meals over halfway.

Canned Foods

Remove foods from can and place in a suitable dish before heating.

Soups

Use a bowl and stir before heating and at least once through reheat time and again at the end.

Casseroles

Stir halfway through and again at the end of heating.

Mince Pies

REMEMBER even if the pastry is cold to the touch, the filling will be piping hot and will warm the pastry through. Take care not to overheat otherwise burning can occur due to the high fat and sugar content of the filling. Check the temperature of the filling before consuming to avoid burning your mouth.

Christmas Puddings and Liquids

Take great care when reheating these items. See Page 66.

Do not leave unattended.

Do not add extra alcohol.

Babiesʼ Bottles - Caution

Milk or formula MUST be shaken thoroughly before heating and again at the end and tested carefully before feeding a baby. See page 61 for details.

WE DO NOT RECOMMEND THAT YOU USE YOUR MICROWAVE TO STERILISE BABIESʼ BOTTLES. If you have a special microwave steriliser we urge extreme caution, due to the low quantity of water involved. It is vital to follow the manufacturers instructions implicitly.
