Samsung NQ50H7235AS/EE manual Reheating liquids

Reheating

Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time a conventional oven takes.

Arranging and covering

Avoid reheating large items such as joints of meat since they tend to overcook and dry out before the centre is piping hot. You will have more success reheating smaller pieces. Keeping food covered while heating will also help prevent drying.

Power levels

Different power levels can be used for reheating foods.

In general, for large quantities of delicate food or foods that heat up quickly, such as mince pies, it is better to use a lower power level.

Stirring

Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir again before serving. Stirring is especially important when heating liquids.

Heating and standing times

When reheating food for the first time, it is helpful to make a note of the time taken for future reference. Avoid overheating. If uncertain, it is preferable to underestimate cooking time. Then extra heating time can be added, if necessary. Always make sure that reheated food is piping hot throughout. Allow food

to stand for a short time after reheating to let the temperature even out. The recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes.

Reheating liquids

Take special care when heating liquids. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, place a spoon or glass stick in the beverage. Stir during heating and always stir after heating. Allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off to allow the temperature to even out.
