  1. Ok. This shopping trip I bought 2 gal. milk. I froze one. I put it
    in the fridge about 3 days ago and so far I have had 2 glasses of milk.
    The rest is still ice. How to you thaw it out without heating the
    milk?

    I am sure leaving it on the counter is not a good idea.

    I think leaving out on the counter is OK, as long as you do so at a
    time when you can check every few hours to see if there's still ice
    left. As long as there's ice in it it will be cold enough not to
    spoil, and even after all the ice melts it won't go bad in 2-3 hours.

    How about treating it similarly to a frozen turkey? Sit it in the
    sink, and run cold water to surround it.

    When my kids were small, we would often freeze milk. Then defrost it in
    the microwave using the defrost cycle. The only trick is too shake the
    milk up well after it is a liquid again as the butter fat seperates out.
    And if not shaken the milk tastes weird.

    You need to plan a little. Take the milk out of the freezer and put it
    in your refrigerator one day before you intend to use it. In 24 hours,
    it should be safely thawed.

    Oops. I didn't read either. The microwave idea makes sense.

    Howdy,

    Where in the fridge did you have the milk?

    I suspect that it was in the coolest part. A refrigerator is
    not the same temperature throughout. Find the warmest
    section, and put the milk there.

    All the best,
