The microwave is useful for reheating
food.
To heat select
–
for drinks a setting of 1000 W,
–
for food a setting of 600 to 850 W.
–
for baby food a setting of 450 W.
Take care that the baby food is at
eating temperature when served.
Heat baby food only for 30 seconds
to 1 minute on 450 Watt.
The respective automatic programs are
ideal for reheating.
Always use a lid or cover for re-heating
food, except when a drier finish is
needed, e.g. breaded poultry/meat.
Open glass containers before
reheating food.
Remove the lid of baby food glass
containers.
Remove the lid or nipple from baby
bottles before heating.
To heat a liquid insert the enclosed
boiling wand into the container.
Do not heat rehard boiled eggs,
even without the shell, in the
microwave oven. The eggs can
burst.
The time required depends on the food,
its initial temperature and the amount to
be cooked. Food taken straight from
the refrigerator requires longer to reheat
than food stored at room temperature.
Always ensure that food is
sufficiently cooked or reheated.
If in doubt that a sufficiently high
temperature has been reached,
continue reheating for a little longer.
Stir the food halfway through the
re-heating.
When using the Automatic program a
tone will sound as a reminder. Stir the
outer portion to the middle since the
rims are reheated faster.
After re-heating
Be careful when removing a dish
from the oven. It may be hot.
The cookware will not be heated by the
microwave (exception: heat-resistant
earthenware), but by the heat transfer
of the food.
Allow food to stand for a few minutes at
room temperature once a programme
has ended to allow heat to be
distributed evenly. The temperatures
are adjusted.
After heating food, especially food
for babies and small children, stir
the food or shake the container and
check that the temperature does not
pose any danger. Double check
after it has been left to stand.
