Using the microwave only function to
re-heating

Heating food in a microwave oven is much quicker
and energy efficient than traditional methods.

We recommend that you heat foodstuffs (especially
if they are frozen) to a temperature of at least 70°
C. (it must be piping hot!). Leave to stand for a few
minutes as you will not be able to eat that food
immediately because it will be too hot.
This will ensure that any possible bacteria present
in food will have been killed.

To heat pre-cooked or frozen foods, follow these
rules:
-

remove the food from its metal containers;

-

cover it with plastic wrap (the clear-film type
suitable for microwave ovens) or wax paper; in
this way, all the food’s natural flavour will be
preserved and the oven will stay cleaner; you
may also cover the food with an upside-down
plate;

-

if possible, stir or turn the food over frequently
so as to speed up the heating process and
keep the heat uniform at the same time;
