Defrosting Tips
1. It is better to underestimate defrosting time if you
are unsure. Food will continue to defrost during the
standing time.
2. Separate food as soon as possible.
3. Turn large items, e.g. joints, halfway through the
defrosting time, or at pause.
4. Remove any thawed food as soon as possible.
. Remove or open any packaging before defrosting.
. Place food in a larger container than that which it
was frozen in, this will allow for easy stirring.

7. Begin thawing poultry, breast side down and turn
over halfway through defrosting time or at pause.
Delicate areas such as wing tips can be shielded
with small pieces of smooth foil.
8. Standing time is very important, particularly for
large, dense foods which cannot be stirred to
ensure that the centre is completely defrosted
before cooking.
