tips for
defrosting
The defrost feature allows you to thaw food for a set
amount of time.
For best results, remove food from packaging
and place on broil pan and grid. If food is left
in packaging, slit, pierce or vent to prevent heat
buildup.
Place food in the oven according to the
Defrosting Guide.
You can use all cookware/containers that are
oven safe or microwave-safe. Arcing is the
microwave term for sparks in the oven. Be sure
there is at least 1 inch of space between metal
surfaces—pans, wall of cavity, aluminum foil—
to prevent arcing. Dishes with metallic trim
should not be used as arcing may occur.
Remove metal twist ties from paper or plastic
bags before placing them in the oven.
Do not completely surround food with metal
and/or foil.
Plastic storage containers should be uncovered
before defrosting.
Foods that spoil easily should not be allowed to
sit out for more than one hour after defrosting.
Room temperature promotes the growth of
harmful bacteria.
Use caution when removing metal pans and
stoneware after defrosting. They may become
very warm, and you may need to use a potholder.
For more even defrosting, turn food over,
separate and rearrange when prompted. Be
sure large meats are completely defrosted
before cooking. See the Defrosting Guide for
additional comments.
When defrosted, food should be cool but
softened in all areas. If still slightly icy, return
to the oven very briefly, or let it stand a
few minutes.
