With the acceleration of people's pace of life and changes in dietary structure, frozen foods will continue to be favored by consumers due to their convenient and fast characteristics. Especially among young people, frozen foods are widely popular due to their simple operation and diverse taste.

Quick frozen food is processed through rapid low temperature (below -18 ℃), and the water and juice in the food tissue will not be lost. Moreover, at such low temperatures, microorganisms will not reproduce, ensuring the safety of the food.
