harrycatcat1 Posted December 2, 2023 Report Share Posted December 2, 2023 I have been gifted a frozen cooked loster and I have just taken it out of the freezer. I intend to have it for my tea tonight. What's the best way of defrosting it? Hot room, cold water or fridge π€ or any other method? Also can this be warmed up a little (not hot) when defrosted as I can't stand stone cold sea food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
