Reheating by Microwave
Check that food is piping hot before
serving. If not hot enough, return to
oven for further reheating.
The times given in the charts
below are guidelines only, and will
vary depending on STARTING
temperature, dish size, etc.
•
Transfer canned foods from
cans to a suitable microwave
safe container. Stir halfway
during heating and again at the
end of heating.
•
Always use the glass tray when
reheating.
Stirring and Turning
Whenever possible, foods should
be stirred or turned over during
reheating. This helps ensure that the
food reheats evenly on the outside
and in the centre.
Standing Time
Many foods require a STANDING
TIME after reheating. Standing time
is a rest time which allows the heat
in the food to continue to transfer
to the centre, thus eliminating cold
spots. If the food has been covered
during the reheating time, then leave
the covering on during the standing
time. Standing time is particularly
important for dense foods e.g.
Lasagnes, Shepherd’s Pie, etc. and
those foods that cannot be stirred
during reheating.
