Many people think that thawing meat in water is not only simple to operate, but also much faster. But in fact, this thawing method greatly increases the risk of meat being contaminated by bacteria and other microorganisms. You should know that when the meat is frozen, the bacteria and other microorganisms in it are not completely killed. When we take the meat out and gradually thaw it, bacteria and other microorganisms will gradually wake up and resume growth. In this case, bacteria and other microorganisms can easily multiply in large numbers, thus posing a safety hazard .

Moreover, soaking the meat in water to thaw will cause the loss of soluble protein, amino acids, B vitamins and other nutrients in the meat, and the taste will also deteriorate .

What is the best way to defrost meat?

Microwave thawing may be the fastest and most convenient way to eat at home . Many microwave ovens now have a defrosting function. You just need to put the frozen food in and set the time.

If you are not in a hurry, you can put the meat in the refrigerator one day in advance . Because the temperature in the refrigerator is relatively low, most microbial activities will be slowed down or even inhibited, which is not only safer, but also can maintain the quality of the meat. But if you want to thaw in this way, it is best to plan ahead and put the meat in the refrigerator one day in advance.

In addition to meat, try not to leave other frozen foods at room temperature or in water when thawing. And no matter which method you use, once thawed, it is best to process and eat it to avoid repeated freezing .
