How much nutritional value is likely to be lost by breifly thawing frozen food, then refreezing it? Any other risks or problems with re-freezing?
I'm asking because I had the idea of making a simple fish goo (mostly mysis), setting it in ice cube trays, then adding a bit of sand to each cube. The idea would be to create SINKING ice cubes that would serve as one a day fish MRE's.
So, do people think this would hurt the quality of the food a lot?
Any other input or thoughts about this idea?
I did make a test batch and it seems to work well as long as the sand to water ratio is high enough. The ice melts fast so it's like a little mysis depth charge. I really like the idea of being able to just pop an ice cube in to do a day's feeding.
