Thawing Fish


Question Posted Friday December 17 2004, 11:24 am

So I've been preparing fish a lot lately...but haven't ever had to thaw it. Now I've got to thaw it...and I can't remember the best way to do it. Sound silly? It is. I won't use the microwave...because I just wont. I know my mom usually thaws chicken in a tub of luke-warm water...but does that work effectively with fish? So how should I thaw this thing? Thanks.

I thaw everything in warm water... but run it over the fish instead. Personally I think it works better. I even thaw Shrimp with it

with my family, we have always took the fish out the night before or in the morning and placed iot into the fridge. Then, it slowly thaws and still stays fresh.
good luck hunnie,

A couple hours before you prepare the fish, take it out of the freezer and leave it in a bowl of warm almost hot water. When it comes time to preparing it, it should be completely thawed out! That's what everyone in my family usually does. Hope this helped!

Hot water in the sink will work. My grandmother has done it before. You may have to leave it sit for a while and give it time. Put in the bowl of water a hour or two before you plan to prepare it. That should be fine.

the best way is to let it thaw in the fridge overnight, but if you have less time, put it in a sink (or pan) of warm water. hot water and using the microwave will ruin it.

Yes, the water works. That's how my dad does it, but also overnight in the fridge will work if you have more time. Running warm water works best if you're in a hurry. The microwave will ruin it. Good luck!
