Frozen food should be thawed in the refrigerator or in the microwave. Frozen foods like raw meat or fish should NOT be thawed at room temperature – this is a food safety hazard.

Be sure to use freezer-safe bags and containers to maintain quality and prevent freezer burn. Squeeze any extra air out of a freezer-safe bag before freezing.

Raw meat can be frozen in its original packaging.
