We generally defrost in a bowl with cold water. We're the worst at remembering to set something out for dinner until the day of.....

Our fridge has a separate container for meat storage (for defrosting) to keep it away from other foods

How do you do it in cold water? I've heard this method but never thought how it would be used.

I always leave it out, but I heard that you shouldn't.
