Cooking guide
Reheating
Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that conventional
ovens normally take.
Use the power levels and reheating times in the following chart as a guide. The
times in the chart consider liquids with a room temperature of about 64.5 to 68 °F
or a chilled food with a temperature of about 41 to 45 °F.
Arranging and covering
Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat – they tend to overcook and dry
out before the center is piping hot. Reheating small pieces will be more successful.
Power levels and stirring
Some foods can be reheated using 90 % power while others should be reheated
using 60 %, 50 %, or even 30 % .
Check the tables for guidance. In general, it is better to reheat food using a lower
power level, if the food is delicate, in large quantities, or if it is likely to heat up
very quickly (mince pies, for example).
Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir
again before serving.
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods. To prevent eruptive
boiling of liquids and possible scalding, stir before, during, and after heating.
Keep them in the microwave oven during standing time. We recommend putting
a plastic spoon or glass stick into the liquids. Avoid overheating (and therefore
spoiling) the food.
It is preferable to underestimate cooking time and add extra heating time, if
necessary.
Heating and standing times
When reheating food for the rst time, it is helpful to make a note of the time
taken for future reference.
Always make sure that the reheated food is piping hot throughout.
Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating to let the temperature even
out.
The recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes, unless another
time is recommended in the chart.
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby food. See also the chapter with
the safety precautions.
Reheating liquids
Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been
switched off to allow the temperature to even out. Stir during heating, if necessary,
and ALWAYS stir after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding,
you should put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during,
and after heating.
Reheating baby food
Baby food
Empty into a deep ceramic plate. Cover with plastic lid. Stir well after reheating!
Let stand for 2-3 minutes before serving. Stir again and check the temperature.
Recommended serving temperature: between 86 to 104 °F.
Baby milk
Pour milk into a sterilised glass bottle. Reheat uncovered. Never heat a baby’s
bottle with nipple on, as the bottle may explode if overheated. Shake well before
standing time and again before serving ! Always carefully check the temperature
of baby milk or food before giving it to the baby. Recommended serving
temperature: ca. 98.6 °F.
