The most troublesome thing for many housewives is to unfreeze the food, because the freezer often freezes the food like ice. So how to defrost food quickly is a necessary skill for housewives. How to thaw food quickly?
First: microwave method, put the ingredients into the microwave oven for heating. The huge amount of heat generated allows the food to be thawed from inside to outside, not just from the outside. The microwave defrosting method needs to use many times and a small amount of methods, for example, heating the microwave oven to medium fire for five minutes, and then repeatedly until the defrosting. This is one of the most convenient ways.
Second: natural defrosting, housewives can take ingredients out of the refrigerator an hour or two in advance and put them in the room to defrost. This method is very simple, but it takes a long time and thaws at room temperature, which is easy to cause uneven thawing of food materials. So it's not one of the most convenient ways.
Third: water thawing method, put the food to be thawed into a plastic bag with a thick package, put the wrapped food into a container and fill it with water, so that the meat slowly returns to the ice through the plastic bag. In the process of thawing, water needs to be changed for 2-3 times, which can accelerate the speed of de icing. Do not let the meat directly in the water.
Fourth: the method of defrosting in the cold room is to treat frozen products as the cold room of the refrigerator in advance, so that they can defrost themselves in the cold room. In this way, the meat will not deteriorate and lose nutrition, and the meat will not lose luster.
Do not use the method is: many people are eager to thaw the ingredients, and they will be immersed in boiling water, because the water is directly used to thaw the meat, the outer ice will first dissolve, and the inner meat will melt slowly, it will expand and break the cells, resulting in the loss of nutrients in the meat with the water, and the taste will become worse when cooking.
