Reheating Liquids - Samsung MG23F3C1E Série Manuel D'utilisation

REHEATING
Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that
conventional ovens hobs 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
+18 to +20 °C or a chilled food with a temperature of about +5 to +7 °C.
Arranging and covering
Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat – they tend to overcook
and dry out before the centre is piping hot. Reheating small pieces will be
more successful.
Power levels and stirring
Some foods can be reheated using 800 W power while others should be
reheated using 600 W, 450 W or even 300 W.
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 irst 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 of 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.
