Cooking and Reheating Guidelines
Most foods reheat very quickly in your oven by
HIGH power. Meals can be brought back to
serving temperature in just minutes and will
taste freshly cooked and NOT leftover. Always
check food is piping hot and return to oven if
necessary.
As a general rule, always cover wet foods, e.g.
soups, casseroles and plated meals.
Do not cover dry foods e.g. bread rolls, mince
pies, sausage rolls etc.
The charts on pages 65-81 show you the best
way to cook or reheat your favourite foods. The
best method depends on the type of food.
Remember when cooking or reheating any
food that it should be stirred or turned
wherever possible. This ensures even cooking
or reheating on the outside and in the centre.
When is food reheated?
Food that has been reheated or cooked should
be served “piping hot” i.e. steam should be
visibly emitted from all parts. As long as good
hygiene practices have been followed during
the prepa ra tion and storage of the food, then
cooking or reheating presents no safety risks.
Foods that cannot be stirred should be cut with
a knife to test that they are adequately heated
throughout. Even if a manufac tur erʼs
instructions or the times in the cookbook have
been followed, it is still important to check the
food is heated thoroughly. If in doubt, always
return to the oven for further reheating.
If you cannot find the equivalent food in the
chart then choose a similar type and size listed
and adjust the cooking time if necessary.
