Some foods can be reheated using 900 W power while others should be reheated using

600 W, 450 W or even 300 W.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Baby food particularly needs to be checked carefully before serving to prevent burns.

Check the tables for guidance.

 

 

 

 

Use the power levels and times in the next table as a guide lines for reheating.

In general, it is better to reheat food using a lower power level, if the food is delicate, in

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

large quantities, or if it is likely to heat up very quickly (mince pies, for example).

 

 

Reheating Liquids and Food

 

 

 

Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir again
