Useful tips
– Place the food to be defrosted on the
glass tray without its packaging.
– For defrosting poultry, use the glass
tray with the rack placed on top of it.
This way the frozen food will not be
lying in the defrosted liquid.
– Meat and poultry need to be fully
defrosted before cooking. Fish, on
the other hand, can be partially
defrosted before cooking. Defrost so
that the surface is sufficiently soft to
take herbs and seasoning.
