Panasonic NN-S215WF, NN-S235WF manual Reheating by Microwave, En-16

Reheating￿ by Microwave

Check that food is piping hot before serving. If not hot enough, return to oven for further reheating.

The times given in the charts below are guidelines only, and will vary depending on STARTING temperature, dish size, etc.

•Transfer canned foods from cans to a suitable microwave safe container. Stir halfway during heating and again at the end of heating.

•Always use the glass tray when reheating.

Stirring and Turning

Whenever possible, foods should be stirred or turned over during reheating. This helps ensure that the food reheats evenly on the outside and in the centre.

Standing Time

Many foods require a STANDING TIME after reheating. Standing time

is a rest time which allows the heat in the food to continue to transfer to the centre, thus eliminating cold spots. If the food has been covered during the reheating time, then leave the covering on during the standing time. Standing time is particularly important for dense foods e.g. Lasagnes, Shepherd’s Pie, etc. and those foods that cannot be stirred during reheating.
