Start with the food placed fat side down. After each stage,
turn the food over and shield any warm portions with
narrow strips of aluminum foil.
0.5-3.0 lbs.
After each stage, rearrange the food. If there are any warm
or thawed portions of food, shield them with narrow flat
pieces of alumi-num foil. Remove any pieces of food that
are nearly defrosted. Let stand, covered, for 5-10 minutes.
0.5-3.0 lbs.
After each stage, remove any pieces of food that are nearly
defrosted. Let stand, covered with foil, for 5–10 minutes.

Remove giblets before freezing poultry. Start defrosting
with the breast side down. After the first stage, turn the
chicken over and shield any warm portions with narrow
strips of aluminum foil. After the second stage, again shield
any warm portions with narrow strips of aluminum foil. Let

Arrange rolls in a circle or bread horizontally on kitchen
paper in the middle of turntable. Turn over after half of
defrosting time!
Check foods when the oven signals. After the final stage, small sections may still be icy;
let them stand to continue thawing. Do not defrost until all ice crys-tals have thawed. Shielding
roasts and steaks with small pieces of foil pre-vents the edges from cooking before the center of
the food has defrosted. Use narrow, flat, smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover the edges and
thinner sec-tions of the food.
