Heating a ready meal from frozen
There are indeed a few types of ready meals available to buy, which are all likely to be partly or fully pre-cooked and will need heating through thoroughly until piping hot at home.
At Wiltshire Farm Foods, we freeze our ready meals for locked in fresh flavour and your guaranteed satisfaction. Our chefs always use quality ingredients to create mouth-watering recipes, and aren’t short of an award or two for what they do!
They make enjoying them at home extrmemely convenient too! You can cook them straight from the freezer, still in their individual packaging, it’s that simple. Simply grab one out the freezer whenever it’s convenient. There is no need to thaw them in the fridge or even pierce the film lid, saving you time when preparing your ready meal at home.
Remember, each dish will have its own heating instruction label, which should always be followed before consuming. Here is what to expect from our cooking labels, depending on which ready meal you order from us.
Oven only frozen ready meals
We do have a few favourites within our range that are best heated in the oven, such as our Roast Chicken and Yorkshire Pudding and Fish and Chips. Our talented chefs have also recently improved our Yorkshire puddings and tasty oven chips so that they are better than ever before. This is to guarantee the crispiest finish, as it’s simply the best way to enjoy them!
