The shape of the package alters the defrosting time Shallow rectangular packets defrost more quickly than deep blocks Separate pieces as they begin to defrost thin slices defrost more easily Shield areas of food with small pieces of foil if they start to become warm When defrosting it is better to under thaw the food slightly and allow the process to finish during the standing time The amount of food The more food you want to prepare the longer it takes A rule of thumb is that double the amount of food requires almost double the time If one potato takes 4 minutes to cook two potatoes will take approximately 7 minutes Starting temperature of food The lower the temperature of the food which is being put into the microwave oven the longer time it takes Food at room temperature will be reheated more quickly than food at refrigerator temperature Composition of the food Food with a lot of fat and sugar will be heated faster than food containing a lot of water Fat and sugar will also reach a higher temperature than water in the cooking process The more dense the food the longer it takes to heat Very dense food like meat takes a longer time to reheat than lighter more porous food like sponge cakes Size and shape Smaller pieces of food will cook more quickly than larger pieces and uniform pieces of food cook more evenly than irregularly shaped foods With unevenly shaped food the thinner parts will cook faster than the thick
