Defrosting

A built-in microwave is a fantastic option for anyone looking to enjoy the best of both worlds when it comes to cooking. Not only are these multi-functional appliances able of defrosting, grilling and baking food but they also offer various innovative functions that enable you to get a broad range of results.

Microwave Oven Built-in  are perfect to defrost food quickly and evenly. Most models have a Defrost setting. This setting asks you to enter the kind of food item, its weight and calculate an optimal time for defrosting based on those factors. Alternatively, you can use the manual defrost option by placing your food on a suitable microwave-safe plate and following the instructions on the display of your microwave's interactive.

The defrost mode in a microwave is activated by a cycle of the magnetron, which produces high frequency heats food items. Unlike other settings, the defrost cycle uses lower power levels (around 20%-30 percent of the appliance's overall output) which allows it to melt food more slowly, without overcooking it. You may need to rotate your food or break down larger pieces of meat in order to ensure an even defrosting.

It is important to keep in mind that thawing food items in the refrigerator takes longer than using a microwave but it does have the benefit of cooking the rest of your meal while the food is defrosting. It is also important to remember that letting defrosted meat sit out at temperatures that are too hot could encourage the growth of bacteria. Defrosting meat for an hour or more prior to cooking is a good way to plan ahead. To aid you in planning, most microwaves have an easy timer feature that shows how long is left on the defrosting cycle.
