My sister and her DH dropped round for a quick lunch this afternoon. We’d arranged it in advance but I forgot to get the food out the freezer first thing this morning as have been very busy.
At 12pm I took a portion of batch-cooked veggie chilli out the freezer. Sister arrived at 2pm when it was still defrosting in an open Tupperware tub (lid off) on the kitchen counter. At 2.30pm I tipped it (semi-frozen) into a pan and added some boiling water, heated it up on the hob for half an hour and served it with rice.
While it was cooking she was complaining that reheating straight from frozen is a bad idea, we’d all get food poisoning etc. I’ve reheated from frozen/semi-frozen many a time (including meat dishes, not just veggie) and was a bit miffed that she was slagging off my cooking in front of my DH and hers tbh.
AIBU to think she was being completely over the top and that reheating straight from frozen is not a big deal/health hazard?
