Remember to label your food. A simple marker and the freezing date will keep things clear, especially when your freezer starts to fill up. It’s a small step that makes all the difference, a bit like organizing your paperwork: you save time, increase efficiency, and gain peace of mind, all while optimizing the freezing of your meat .
Defrosting, the often underestimated step
This is often where everything hinges. Due to lack of time, we’re tempted to rush things… but that’s never the best option. The safest method remains slow defrosting in the refrigerator, ideally 12 to 24 hours in advance depending on the thickness of the cuts. This step must absolutely precede cooking to guarantee healthy and flavorful meat.
While quick and easy cooking methods might seem convenient, they expose meat to potentially dangerous temperature zones and complicate the cooking process. Taking the time to properly prepare meat ensures a more successful culinary experience, without any unpleasant surprises when you eat it.
Adopting these few simple habits will transform freezing into a true ally in everyday life and allow you to fully enjoy every dish, with confidence and pleasure.
