Defrosting
A built-in combi microwave is the perfect choice for anyone looking to get the most value out of cooking. These multi-functional appliances able of defrosting, grilling and baking food but they also have various clever functions to enable you to create a wide variety of results.
Microwave ovens are perfect to defrost food quickly and evenly. Most models have a Defrost setting. This setting usually requires you to input the type of food item and its weight, and calculates the best time for defrosting based on these factors. You can also use the manual defrost function by placing your food on a suitable microwave-safe plate and following the instructions on your microwave's interactive display.
The defrost mode in microwaves is activated by a cycle of the magnetron that generates high frequency heats food. In contrast to other settings, the defrost setting uses lower power levels (around 20% to 30% of the appliance's total output) and allows it to melt food more slowly, without overcooking it. You may need to rotate your food items or break up larger pieces of meat to ensure a consistent defrosting.
It is important to remember that thawing food items in the refrigerator takes longer than using a microwave, but it offers the advantage of letting you cook the rest of your meal while the food is defrosting. Defrosted meat should not be left at room temperature for too long. This can encourage bacteria growth. It is therefore a good idea to plan ahead by defrosting the meat at least an hour before you intend to cook it. The majority of microwaves come with a handy defrosting timer that shows how much time remains.
