HEATING/REHEATING GUIDE
.
To heat or reheat successfully in the microwave, it is important to follow several guidelines. Measure
the amount of food in order to determine the time needed to reheat. Arrange the food in a circular
pattern for best results. Room temperature food will heat faster than refrigerated food. Canned foods
should be taken out of the can and placed in a microwavable container. The food will be heated
more evenly if covered with a microwavable lid or plastic wrap and vented. Remove cover carefully
to prevent steam burns. Use the following chart as a guide for reheating cooked food.
