Defrosting of Frozen Food

Partially thawed or defrosted foods should be

used as soon as possible. Cold air preserves the

food but it does not destroy microorganisms

which rapidly activate themselves after defrosting

and make foods perishable.

Partial defrosting reduces the nutritional value of

foods, especially of fruits, vegetables and ready-

made meals.
