Meat
items found in the range list
A will be prepared or whole
joints requiring preparation.
Remove from the deep freeze,
place on a plastic tray and
place in the fridge.
The
larger the item the sooner
it needs to be taken out to
thaw. Never thaw in warm water,
this produces conditions in
which bacteria thrive and might
in some cases be the cause
of food poisoning.
ASK FOR ADVICE
If
you are unsure how long food items
take to defrost always ask the chef
or cook for advice.
A
good chef will always keep a freezer
log of foods; when they were frozen,
their weight and details about the
food itself.
ie. 23 lamb cutlets - panéed - frozen 21st May 1995.
