Defrosting
A built-in combi microwave is the best option for those looking to make the most of cooking. These multifunctional appliances are not only capable of cooking food, defrosting it or grilling it, but also baking it but also have many clever functions that allow you to create many different outcomes.
Microwave ovens are great for defrosting food fast and evenly, and most models come with a Defrost setting. Ovens & Hobs prompts you to input the type of food item and its weight, calculating the ideal time to defrost based on these factors. You can also utilize the manual defrost option by placing the food on a microwave-safe plate, and following the directions on the interactive display of your microwave.
The defrost feature in microwaves is activated by turning on the magnetron, which generates high-frequency heats food items. The defrost mode uses lower power levels than other settings (around 20-30% of the total output) this allows it to thaw the food more slowly and without overcooking. To ensure that your food is defrosted evenly it is possible to rotate the food or break up larger pieces of meat to keep them separate.
It is crucial to keep in mind that defrosting food items in the fridge can take longer than in a microwave. However you can cook the rest of the meal while it is defrosting. It is also important to keep in mind that letting meat defrosted out at temperatures that are too hot could encourage the growth of bacteria. Defrosting meat an hour or more before cooking is a good idea to plan ahead. To help you plan your meal, many microwaves come with an easy timer feature that displays how much time is remaining in the defrosting process.
