Plastic wrap Microwave-safe only. Use to cover food during cooking to retain moisture. Do not allow the plastic wrap to touch the food.
o The thicker parts of the food should be turned around several times during the defrosting process. o Foods that are rich in fats, such as butter, cottage cheese and cream should not be entirely defrosted. If they are at room temperature, they will be ready to serve within a few minutes. If cream are deep frozen and little bits of ice remain on the top of it, the cream should be whipped before eating. o Bread should be wrapped in a napkin so that it does not get too dry when being defrosted.
Chicken pieces (wings or drumsticks) on a shallow dish, shielding the wing and leg tips with foil. - When prompted, turn the food over and then shield the sections that have already defrosted with foil. - After the defrost time, leave the poultry covered with aluminium foil for 15 – 30 minutes. - After standing time, run under cold water to remove the giblets (if necessary). - Place the chicken on a shallow dish, shielding the exposed bone with foil.
