Brenda+FollowDefrost Steaks Fast With This Simple Water TrickGrab your vacuum-sealed steaks straight from the freezer. Place them (still sealed) in a large bowl and fill it with cold water. Don’t use hot water—it can mess with the texture. Let them sit for 15-40 minutes, depending on how thick your steaks are. Flip them halfway if you want to speed things up. Once thawed, cook as usual! This tip saved my dinner plans more than once because I always forget to take meat out early. Super easy and way faster than waiting for them to thaw in the fridge. #steakhacks #quickdinner #defrostingtips #Food #Cooking80Share
GlacierGlimpse+FollowRoast Dinner in Less Time? Here’s How I Do ItUse a convection oven if you have one—this cuts down roasting time by about 25%. The fan keeps the hot air moving, so everything cooks faster and more evenly. Pressure cookers are a lifesaver for quick roasts. They steam and pressurize the meat, getting it done in about a third of the time. Plus, they’re energy efficient. Sear your roast in a hot pan for 5 minutes per side before baking. This step gives you a crispy crust and speeds up the oven process. Choose a dark roasting pan—meat browns and cooks faster in these, saving you up to an hour. Chop your veggies smaller and remove poultry bones if you can. Both tricks help everything cook through quicker, so dinner’s on the table faster. #RoastTips #QuickDinner #HomeCooking #Food #Cooking10Share
