Your microwave would like to convince you it's intelligent.

Or at least capable of thawing whatever food you place inside of it. All you need to do is push the defrost button and input your food's weight, right?

But if your microwave's attempts at thawing have left you with foods that are still frozen solid, there's still hope: Just switch over to manual power. In other words, punch in cooking times and power levels yourself.

A few FYI's before you start pushing buttons: Always thaw food removed from its packaging, on a microwave-safe plate or bowl, and don't skip the flipping step.
