Defrosting Tips
For best results, t)la(e/ood directly on the
delkost rack and place the rack on the turntabh'.
Foods trozen in paper or plastic can be de/rosted in the t)a(kage. Tightly closed packages shotfld be slit, pier(ed or vented AFTER food has t)artially de/rosted. Plastic storage ( ontainers
should be at least partially uncovered.
FamilDsize, t)repackaged/rozen dimmers can be defl:osted and microwaved. If tile R)od is in a foil
containel, transti'r it to a microwave-sale dish.
Foods that spoil easil}, such as milk, eggs, fish, stu/lings, t)oult_T and l)ork, should not be
allowed to sit o/it ]i)l? lnol?e than one ho/lr alter delkosting. Room temt)erature t)romotes tile
growth of harm/+ul bacteria.
For more even delrosting of larger toods, such as beef, lamt) and veal roasts, use Auto Defrost.
Be sure large meats are COml)letely detrosted betore cooking.
When detkoswd, tood should be cool bm
softened in all areas. If still slightly icy, return to the microwave very briefl}, or let it stand
