To quickly thaw frozen food

January 25, 2010 | Filed under Tip of the Day

If you have forgotten to take the meat out of the freezer for dinner and want to thaw it out quickly, try putting the well sealed packet of meat in a bowl or sink of cold water.

300-400 gms of meat will thaw in 1-2 hours depending on the room temperature.

You can do this with any frozen food – just make sure the water can’t get into the food product.

Why the cold water treatment works better than sitting on the kitchen bench is a mystery to me.  Anyone got any ideas?
