Defrosting
A built-in combi microwave is an excellent option for those who want to have the best of both worlds when it comes to cooking. Not only are these multi-functional appliances capable of defrosting, grilling and baking food but they also have various clever functions that allow you to get a broad range of results.
Most microwave ovens have a Defrost option which allows you to defrost food quickly and evenly. This setting will ask you to enter the kind of food item, its weight and calculate an optimal time for defrosting based on those factors. You can also use the manual defrost option by placing your food on a suitable microwave-safe plate and following the directions on the display of your microwave's interactive.
The defrost cycle in a microwave works by alternating the magnetron which produces high frequencies that heat food-on and off. The defrost setting uses less power than other settings (around 20-30% of total output) this allows it to melt the food more slowly and without overcooking. To ensure that your food is defrosted evenly it is possible to rotate the food or break up larger pieces of meat to keep them separate.
It is important to note that thawing food in a refrigerator can take longer than using a microwave but it does have the benefit of cooking the rest of your meal while food is being defrosted. Defrosted meat shouldn't be kept at room temperature for too long. This could encourage bacterial growth. Defrosting meat for an hour or more before cooking is a good idea to prepare for. Many microwaves come with a handy timer for defrosting that shows how much time remains.
