THAWING FROZEN FOOD

• Thawing is an important step in storing food preserved by freezing. Food must
be thawed in the correct way.
• Suitable methods of thawing food are:
- in the refrigerator;
- in cold water;
- in a microwave or conventional oven with a suitable thaw program.
• Some frozen products can be prepared without needing to thaw them fi rst.
The manufacturer will state this on the packaging.
• The food needs to be packed in small portions. In this way the food thaws
faster.
• Use partially or completely thawed food as quickly as possible. The bacteria
in thawed food are reactivated and the food will spoil rapidly. This applies in
particular to fruit, vegetables and ready-made food.
• Do not refreeze partially or completely thawed food.
