Kitchen Hint of the Day!

Thank you to Joan for sending me this one!


The fastest way to defrost meat is under a cold running tap. But if you want to save water and speed things up a bit, place your meat on an aluminum sheet tray or skillet. Aluminum is a great conductor of heat and will draw energy from the surrounding environment into your frozen meat much faster than a wooden cutting board or wood or stone counter top. You can cut defrosting times down by about 30 percent this way. It also works on soups, stews, and anything frozen flat.
