Defrosting
meats
tips
&
techniques
?
You can defrost meats in their
original wrapping
as
long
as no metal is
present.
If
necessary,
shield small
areas of meat or
poultry
with
flat
pieces
of aluminium foil. This
will
prevent
thin areas
becoming
warm
dur-
ing defrosting.
Ensure the foil does not touch the oven
walls.
?
Food to be defrosted should be in a suitable
microwave
safe container and
placed
uncovered on the
glass
turntable.
?
Defrost meats
only
as
long
as
necessary. Separate
items like minced
meat,
chops, sausages
and bacon as
soon as
possible.
Remove defrosted
portions
and continue to defrost
remaining pieces.
It is essential that
food is checked
during
DEFROSTING as different foods
vary
in their
defrosting speed.
?
Whole
pieces
of meat are
ready
for
standing
time as soon as a fork can be
pushed
into the center of the
meat
using
moderate
pressure.
The center
will
still be
icy.
Allow
to stand until
completely
thawed.
