Thawing Frozen Food - Atag KS35088C Bedienungsanleitung

STORING AND FREEZING FOOD

Thawing frozen food

• Thawing is an important step in storing food preserved by freezing. Food must be thawed in
the correct way.
• Suitable methods of thawing food are:
▷ in the refrigerator;
▷ in cold water;
▷ in a microwave or conventional oven with a suitable thaw program.
• Some frozen products can be prepared without needing to thaw them first. The manufacturer
will state this on the packaging.
• The food needs to be packed in small portions. In this way the food thaws faster.
• Use partially or completely thawed food as quickly as possible. The bacteria in thawed food
are reactivated and the food will spoil rapidly. This applies in particular to fruit, vegetables
and ready-made food.
• Do not refreeze partially or completely thawed food.
