Heating and Defrosting Time Charts
BREAKFAST
All foods listed are prepared in advance and reheated
at HIGH power from refrigerated temperatures (40˚F).
Most breakfast foods are heated covered to retain
moisture, with the exception of breads and pastries,
which should be heated uncovered on absorbent
material such as a napkin or paper towel to prevent
sogginess. For poached eggs, pierce yolks before
heating and allow eggs to stand for one minute after
cooking so pressure subsides before cutting into them.
When preparing breakfast foods conventionally,
undercook slightly and immediately chill and store,
covered, for later reheating.
Cured breakfast meats will reheat faster than uncured
meats because salt readily absorbs microwave energy.
WARNING: Never cook or reheat eggs in the shell.
They may explode when interior pressure builds up.
