Mastering the Art of Slow Thaw: Elevate Your Alima's Frozen Food Experience

Are you tired of boring and tasteless frozen meals? At Alima's, we believe that every dining experience should be exceptional, from the first bite to the last. That's why we're here to guide you through the art of slow thawing, a simple yet transformative technique that will elevate your Alima's frozen food experience to new heights.

Slow Thaw Method:

Let's start with the basics: the slow thaw method. While it may require a bit of patience, trust us when we say that the results are well worth the wait.

The secret to unlocking the full flavour potential of your Alima's frozen delights lies in the gentle embrace of your refrigerator. Simply transfer your frozen item from the freezer to the refrigerator and allow it to thaw slowly overnight. This gradual process not only preserves the integrity of the ingredients but also allows the dish to retain that delicious Alima’s taste.

For Rotis (Parathas, Dhalpuris, Aloo-puris)

For rotis such as Parathas, Dhalpuris, and Aloo-puris, start by removing them from their plastic packaging. Place them in the microwave for approximately thirty seconds, though the exact timing may vary depending on your microwave's power and the desired warmth. Use your judgment to determine if additional time is needed, adjusting in short intervals as necessary. For those seeking optimal results, consider using a frying pan, tawa, or griddle for reheating, allowing for a more thorough and flavorful finish.


For Curries, Stews, Chokas etc.

When it comes to curries, stews, and chokas, opt for a different approach. Instead of microwaving, it's best to heat these items in a small pot or frying pan. This method offers a superior finish compared to microwaving, enhancing the overall taste and texture of the dish. Certain ingredients, such as chicken or gamey meats like duck, may not microwave well and could develop an undesirable taste for some individuals. By utilizing stovetop reheating methods, you can ensure a more enjoyable dining experience with every bite.
