Putting meat through a cook-freeze-thaw-reheat-refreeze cycle isn't generally going to result in a quality product and could present some food safety issues.
The only situation where this might work might be with cooked ground beef used in a sauce or chili - if all sanitation precautions are followed.
If the meat reached room temperature or close to it, I wouldn't recommend it. The bacteria in meat that are cause for concern are toxic in and of themselves. This means that even though you cooked the meat and killed the bacteria, all their little poison bits are still in the meat.
If the meat just thawed in the fridge, I'm pretty sure that's okay.
Yes, this can be done. Place cooked meat in an air tight container before freezing. Freezer bags can be used.
No! That's how you get bacteria! If you took food out to thaw, then decided you didnt need it, cook it up, then refreeze the COOKED portions!
No, that would not be a safe thing to do.
How long it will last will depend upon how good it was when frozen and how it was thawed. If it was thawed at room temperature, it should be cooked immediately. If it wasn't fresh when frozen, it should be cooked immediately. If it was very fresh when frozen and was thawed in the fridge, then you should have at least a couple days to cook it.
Yes
No, frozen is frozen. But you can refreeze something that has been thawed. You can refreeze thawed meat long as there are still ice crystals on it. Once completely thawed then you need to cook it first then refreeze. This applies to solid pieces only, ground meat once more than half thawed needs to be cooked first then refrozen always.
You can if it was deep-frozen raw chicken which was defrosted and then thoroughly cooked in the oven. If the cooked chicken is then deep-frozen it can be defrosted (thawed) and eaten, but should not be deep-frozen a third time.
Fresh chicken is much juicier than frozen chicken.
4 cups leaves, 6 ounces 1lb fresh = 1 cup cooked 15 to 16 oz. can = 1 1/2 - 2 cups 10 oz bag = 6 cups of leaves, 1 1/4 cups cooked, 2/3 cup cooked & squeezed dry 10oz frozen = 1 1/2cups cooked
A frozen turkey does not weigh more than fresh. A 15-lb frozen turkey will weigh 15 lbs. when it is thawed.
Yes, you can safely freeze cooked fish.
Approximately 10 ounces of frozen, cooked spinach will result in the same amount as one pound of fresh, trimmed and cooked spinach.
It can be, but it is not desirable to do so. The fish could not have been thawed for long and would have to have been thawed under refrigeration. Freezing it again will adversely affect the quality of the fish. You might consider cooking it first, then freezing it.
A frozen turkey must be thawed slowly, over a day or two, then cooked thoroughly, otherwise you could be food poisoned. Though thawing is not required with a fresh turkey, thorough cooking is still important.
You should never refreeze any type of meat or seafood that has thawed - best to cook it and then freeze.Unthawed chicken is frozen chicken. It cannot be refrozen because it has remained frozen. If chicken has been removed from a freezer but has remained hard on the outside, it is still frozen and can be replaced into the freezer without suffering any further damage.
