Tips on defrosting, heating and cooking with the
microwave next time
Follow these tips for good results when defrosting,
heating and cooking with the microwave.
Issue Tip
Your food is too dry. ¡ Reduce the cooking
time or select a lower
microwave power set-
ting.
¡ Cover the food and
add more liquid.
Issue Tip
The time has elapsed but
the food is not defrosted,

Increase the cooking

The time has elapsed but
your food is not yet done
on the inside, but is
already overdone on the
outside.
¡ Stir occasionally.
¡ Reduce the microwave
power setting and in-
crease the cooking
time.
After defrosting, the
poultry or meat is defros-
ted on the outside but not
defrosted in the middle.

frozen food several
times.
