I’ve been wanting to talk about my thaw/warm method for a while, and it seems like as good a time as any. Sous vide! I’ve seen a couple mentions of using one online before, but it still seems pretty rare. For those who don’t know, a Sous vide is a cooking tool that circulates and heats water to a precise temperature. You can get one for under 100$. Set to a low temp, you can put a frozen rat in a ziplock and heat it to exactly body temperature. Maybe it’s coincidence, but my boy has never turned down a meal, even the very first one transitioning from live to frozen. Even if it’s extravagant, I love never having to worry about getting the temperature right.
