ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and method for thawing frozen food for use in a refrigerator appliance with a storage compartment maintained at a temperature between 33.degree.-55.degree. F. There is provided a container for receiving a frozen food load to be thawed within the compartment. An electric fan is in air flow communication with the interior of the container and timer means are provided for energizing and then deenergizing the fan after a predetermined period of operating time whereby the frozen food load may be thawed and allowed to remain in the container subsequent to thawing, the temperature within said container being substantially at the temperature of the storage compartment thus preventing spoilage of the thawed food.
