Defrosting
by Hot Air
In the main
oven
34
Food in flat aluminium containers defrosts especially well
since aluminium is a good heat conductor. For freezing and
subsequent defrosting of meat and vegetable dishes, flat alu
minium containers should therefore be used. For defrosting
uncooked frozen meat and fruit, closed ovenproof dishes are
especially well suited.
Position the containers on the wire shelf or in the meat pan 4f h
from the top.
