W Foods frozen in paper or plastic can

but foods should be taken out of
the package when using DEFROST
BY FOOD TYPE Closed packages
should be slit pierced or vented
after food has partiallg defrosted
Plastic storage containers should
be partiallg uncovered,

Oven

[] For more even defrosting of
larger foods, such as roasts, use
DEFROST BY TttvtE Be sure large
meats are completelg defrosted
before cooking
[] When defrosted, food should
be cool but softened in all areas
If still slightlg icg, return to the
microwave verg brieflg, or let
it stand a few minutes

ml Familg-size, prepackaged frozen
dinners can be defrosted and
microwaved, If the food is in
a foil container, transfer it to

W Foods that spoil easilg should not
be allowed to sit out for more than
