First, prepare a large basin, which is large enough to hold the frozen fish, so that all the frozen fish can be spread out, and the freezing efficiency can be improved. Take the frozen fish out of the refrigerator and put it into the basin. Add some water to drown the frozen fish. Here, be sure to drown the whole fish with the water level.
Then pour some salt into the basin and stir it to dissolve it quickly. The advantage of adding salt is to speed up the thawing of frozen fish, and it can also be sterilized, which is the best of both worlds. Finally, let it stand for about 10 minute, and the frozen fish will naturally thaw.
The thawing method of frozen fish is actually similar to that of meat. Some people thaw it at room temperature after taking it out, while others soak it in hot water and cook it immediately, which is wrong.
Two common thawing methods:
One is to take the frozen food out of the freezer one night before cooking and put it in the freezer, and then take it out the next day. This thawing method takes a long time, but it is a sanitary thawing method and can also preserve the quality of food.
The second is to take the frozen food out of the ice cube and thaw it in the air, but this method is greatly influenced by the indoor temperature, especially when the weather is hot, the thawed food is easy to breed bacteria and cause food spoilage, which is not recommended.
