How To Defrost Mince Meat?

Place the mince meat in the refrigerator until fully thawed

Keep it in a sealed container or on a plate to prevent leaks

Submerge the sealed package in cold water and change the water every 30 minutes

Use the microwave defrost setting if cooking it immediately after thawing

Cook mince meat directly from frozen if needed, breaking it up as it cooks

Never defrost mince meat at room temperature

Use thawed mince meat promptly and do not refreeze it unless cooked first
