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.
