Preserving that just-cooked freshness and taste is paramount when reheating frozen goods, so I set out to learn if thawing food before heating would be beneficial
Thaw potato kugel overnight in the refrigerator (about 20–24 hours) or on the counter until defrosted. As a safety precaution, don’t leave it out too long (over three hours).
Heat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake until heated through, about 20 minutes.
Heat oven to 350°F (175°C). Remove potato kugel from the freezer and place directly in the oven. Bake until heated through, about 50–60 minutes.
Note: When it comes to roasts that are slow-cooked in a sauce, the results would be similar. You can reheat it in the oven at 325°F (160°C) straight from the freezer until heated through, about 45–70 minutes, depending on the size. Make sure it’s covered to trap the steam and keep the meat moist.
