FISH AND SEAFOOD
Defrost
Fish and seafood can be defrosted and heated
successfully in this microwave oven. To defrost evenly,
fish should be arranged in a single layer in container
and should only be thawed to the point of being flexible
so it does not begin to cook at the edges.
Primary Cooking
Cooking individual portions demands close attention as
well as slight undercooking. Delicate fish and shellfish
should always be cooked covered and should rest after
heating.
