Note when defrosting

To facilitate the storage of food on the refrigerator and to ensure easy defrosting, before freezing lean beef, cut into thin slices (about less than 3cm). For chicks, cows and ribs, freeze separately each piece (if necessary), insert into a thin frozen plastic container for easy defrosting.

1. Ribs and thighs need to be folded into a straight line to thaw.
2. Minced meat needs to be arranged into thin pieces to thaw.
3. After turning the food over, it is necessary to shield the defrosted areas with small and flat pieces of aluminum foil.
4. Chicken thighs need to be processed immediately after defrosting.
5. If you do not use all the food after defrosting, you must cook food and keep it in the refrigerator, can store it for 1-2 days.

These are useful information to help you defrost food quickly and still retain the flavor of the dish.
