[. . . ] With respect to traditional methods, a microwave saves you time and, therefore, also electricity. · You are recommended to heat food (particularly if frozen) to a temperature of at least 70°C (it must be piping hot!). You will not be able to eat the food at once as it will be too hot, but complete sterilisation will be guaranteed. · Always follow these rules for reheating cooked or frozen foods: - remove the food from metal containers; - Cover the food with clear film (use microwave resistant film) or greaseproof paper. - if possible, mix or turn frequently to make the heating process quicker and more even. Remember that in certain conditions, these times may have to be increased; · Frozen food must be defrosted before heating starts. The lower the initial temperature of the food, the longer the time required for heating. · Food and beverages may be heated for short periods in paper or plastic containers. However, if the cooking time is too long, these containers may distort. 41 Heating times NB: Certain dishes can also be easily heated using the automatic functions (see page 30 or page 51).
