Just took a frozen Aldi turkey breast out of the freezer - on the back of the packaging it says "Best cooked from frozen" - surely that can't be right? :-S |

That doesn't sound right to me Ann. I always thought poultry had to be properly defrosted before cooking. |

I've been reading about this happening :-S... but I'm an 'old cook' and certainly wouldn't cook poultry from frozen... but then always some things changing (think there's probably an uptodate freezing method now?) |

My DIL cooks a whole turkey from frozen and when it's thawed out enough in the oven she reaches in and pulls out the bag of giblets. |

Hi Ann, I always defrost before cooking, I would be wary about cooking it from frozen. |

I thought the rule was, if it has four legs you can cook it from frozen, less than four, you defrost first!! |
