Hi, all. It's become popular to freeze stock flat in a freezer bag, to save space. I've done it, but I get aggravated when it's time to thaw it. I often don't remember that I'll need it till, um, I need it
So usually, I'll freeze it in quart-size deli containers, then put them upside down in my quart-size measuring cup to thaw in the microwave. As it thaws, the block of stock falls out of the container and it's easy to handle once it's all thawed.
So if it's flat, I put it in an 8x8 glass dish to thaw. But when it's time to use it, it's a pain to pour it out of the square pan.
So my question is, how do you thaw flat-frozen stock?
