Defrosting Tips and Techniques
Preparation for Freezing:
1. Heavy-duty plastic wraps, bags and freezer wrap are suitable.
2. Freeze meats, poultry and fish in packages with only 1 or 2 layers of food. To aid in separating layers, place
two pieces of wax paper between them.
3. REMOVE ALL AIR and seal securely.
4. LABEL package with type and cut of meat, date and weight.
5. Defrosting times given in the charts are for thoroughly frozen foods (i.e. at least 24 hours in freezer
maintained at -18°C or lower).
Defrosting Technique:
1. Remove from wrapper and set on a defrosting rack in a dish on Glass Tray.
2. On Turbo Defrost, the oven will beep during the defrosting time. At "beep", turn over all meat, poultry, fish
and shellfish. Break apart stewing meat, chicken pieces and minced meat. Separate chops and hamburger
patties.Shield thin ends of roasts, poultry legs and wings, fat or bones with foil.
3. Throughout the defrosting time, remove any defrosted portions of mince or cubed meat, etc.
4. After defrosting, large roasts may still be icy in the centre. Let stand, 15 to 30 minutes, in refrigerator to
complete defrosting.
