You can also use the oven for
defrosting.
We recommend using Fan plus
U
.
Set a maximum temperature of 50 °C
for the Defrost function.
For defrosting meat and delicate foods
use the lowest possible temperature
(30 °C).
Please note:
– Where possible remove the
packaging and put the food to be
defrosted on the universal tray or into
a suitable dish.
,
It is particularly important to
observe food hygiene rules when
defrosting poultry. Do not use the
liquid from the defrosted poultry.
Pour it away and wash the tray, the
sink and your hands. Danger of
salmonella poisoning.
– When defrosting poultry, put it on the
rack over the universal tray to catch
the defrosted liquid so that the meat
is not lying in this liquid.
– Fish does not need to be fully
defrosted before cooking. Defrost so
that the surface is sufficiently thawed
to take herbs and seasoning.
Defrosting times
The time needed for defrosting
depends on the type and weight of the
food, and at what temperature it was
deep frozen. The following chart is for
guidance only. It is important to check
