REHEATING CHART
GENERAL HINTS:
As in traditional cooking methods, food
reheated in a microwave oven must always
be heated until piping hot.
Covering the food helps to keep the
moisture inside the food, reduces
spattering and shortens the reheating time.
The best results are achieved if the food
is arranged with the thicker food to the
outside of the plate and the thinner food in
the centre.
Place thin slices of meat on top of each
other or interlace them. Thicker slices such
as meat loaf and sausages have to be
placed close to each other.
When reheating stews or sauces it is
better to stir once to distribute the heat
evenly.
When reheating frozen food portions
follow the manufactures instruction on the
package.
Food which cannot be stirred, like gratin is
best reheated on level 5 - 6.
Some minutes standing time will make
sure the temperature is evenly distributed
throughout the food.
