Microwave ovens are perfect to defrost food quickly and evenly. The majority of models have a Defrost setting. This setting typically prompts you to input the type of food and its weight, and calculates an optimal defrosting time based on these factors. Alternately, you can utilize the manual defrost feature by placing your food on a suitable microwave-safe plate and following the instructions on the interactive display of your microwave.
The defrost function in microwaves is activated by turning on the magnetron that generates high-frequency heats food. The defrost setting uses less power than other settings (around 20-30% of the total output), which allows it to thaw 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.
integrated oven and microwave is important to keep in mind that defrosting food items in the fridge can take longer than in a microwave. However, you can cook the remainder of the meal while defrosting. Defrosted meat should not be left at room temperature too long. This can trigger bacteria growth. So, it's recommended to prepare by defrosting your meat at least an hour prior to the time you intend to cook it. The majority of microwaves come with a handy timer for defrosting which shows how long is left.
