Defrosting your FROZEN INGREDIENT COULD SAVE YOUR ELECTRIC BILL.
When it comes to electric bills, your fridge would usually take a big chunk of the cake. And that is because it could possibly run all the time given you may have insulation issues, leaks out the cold air, or perhaps ….. just amount of the of the energy it takes to keep the TEMPERATURE COOL INSIDE THE FRIDGE!
How did the old refrigerator (ice box) work before electricity?
To answer the question above, we need to go back in time where the fridge, so called an icebox, is nothing more than an insulated box where
you would put a big block of ice to keep things cool.
Well, that is the same concept when you defrosting or thawing out your frozen ingredient inside your modern day fridge, it is basically adding the ice to the cooling system. Only you are not using electricity to keep things cool, the FROZEN STUFF IS YOUR ICE B
LOCK!
What is good for defrosting is also good for the meal
Although, most people don’t think this way when it comes to defrosting food (just pop it into the microwave: use more energy and take away the potential power to save). But scheduling things inside your fridge in a cool environment would keep the thawing ingredient fresh and ready for cooking and also play a big part in saving energy.
