Tips
Freezing and thawing – the easy
way ...
A microwave oven is the ideal appliance
for even and quick thawing of deep-
frozen goods. The selection of power,
thawing and standing times depends on
the nature and amount of food.
Microwaves always penetrate food from
the outside to the inside. Therefore,
particularly large items cannot be tha-
wed right to the middle, as otherwise
the outer layers may begin to cook.
Correct thawing begins with the
freezing process. Give the matter some
consideration and, as far as possible,
portion the amounts small, flat and
suited to your household. Consider
also the size of the various bowls
or plates with which you will later thaw
the deep frozen foods in the microwave
oven.
In the following thawing chart, several
foods are listed. There, in addition to
details over time and amount, you will
also find the so-called „Stand-Time“.
It serves as a temperature equalisation
period, during which the remaining
warmth in the thawed layers in the
middle is conducted to the still frozen
layers. During this stand time, leave the
deep-frozen goods in the switched off
microwave or outside the appliance.
There may be deviations in the stated
values. These are caused by the different
factors of the foods.
