Many people put meat straight into the freezer after buying it so that the product can be stored longer. As a result, you only need to take it out a few hours before cooking, so that you can then start preparing delicious dishes.
But does it happen that you defrost meat but change your mind about cooking it?
At first glance, it may seem that there is nothing wrong with putting the product back in the freezer.
But in reality, it is so easy to spoil meat.
The thing is that refreezing can change the structure of the product. As a result, it becomes harder and drier after cooking.
These are not all the disadvantages of refreezing.
It is necessary to take into account that the taste of the product suffers, and the beneficial properties of the meat become less.
Besides, you can harm your health.
Refreezing increases the risk of bacterial contamination. Microbes can multiply after refreezing, which can cause health problems.
