Using Ginger
This method is quite new to many people. You can defrost food by smashing ginger and adding it to water. Soaking in ginger water not only helps defrost meat quickly but also makes the meat taste better.
Do not use hot water to defrost because it will lose some nutrients and freshness of the food.
Defrosting meat with a microwave
This is a quick and safe defrosting method, but you should calculate the cooking and processing time of the meat to defrost it properly. Immediately after the meat is defrosted, cook it immediately to avoid bacterial growth due to exposure to room temperature, which can cause food poisoning and diarrhea.
In addition, meat thawed in the microwave needs to be fully cooked before returning it to the refrigerator freezer compartment because it may be contaminated with bacteria.
Defrosting with vinegar
If you are defrosting meat, add a cap of vinegar to the defrosting water because the freezing point of vinegar is lower than that of water, which can speed up the melting of ice, thereby achieving faster defrosting results.
Because vinegar has a sour taste, you should not choose overly sour vinegar to use. If you have sweet vinegar, it will be very convenient to use for thawing, so pay attention to the amount of vinegar used, otherwise the taste of the meat will be changed and it will not taste good.
Cold Water Soaking
This is a very quick and easy way to defrost food. You can put the entire package of food in cold water to defrost. If you want it to be faster, you can add a little salt water. This is a quick defrosting method that still preserves the nutrients in the food.
Defrosting with Metal Solution
Metal is a very good conductor of heat, so it can be used to defrost meat relatively effectively. Use a clean pan bottom or a large metal knife, clamp the piece of meat in between. This method will defrost the meat in about 10 minutes, making it easier to cut.
