<p>It is an object of the present invention to provide a method and apparatus for carrying out high quality defrosting in a short amount of time which creates only a small temperature difference between the inside and outside of the frozen products, with very little oxidation of the frozen products, and without generating a drip from the frozen products regardless of the shape and temperature of the frozen products. <??>A method of defrosting frozen products of the present invention is the method of carrying out microwave heating while reducing the pressure, terminating microwave heating upon detection of a microwave-induced electrical discharge during the microwave heating step, reducing the pressure while microwave heating is in a terminated state to a pressure level at or below a sublimation pressure level to generate sublimation on the frozen products, returning the pressure to a prescribed pressure level to enable microwave heating to be restarted, and repeating the steps from the microwave heating step through the pressure returning step a prescribed number of times. <IMAGE></p> |
