Fish & Scallops: The best way to thaw your fish or scallops is to leave them in the refrigerator overnight, allowing at least 8-10 hours. Sometimes the vacuum packages lose their seals in transit. This is normal. In those cases, use those packs first by taking the fish out of the packaging on a plate with plastic wrap over it and place in the refrigerator overnight.
For quicker thawing, place the vacuum sealed pouch in a bowl of cool water for 30-46 minutes. Do not use warm water, as it can cause the seafood to lose flavor and texture.
Crab:Crab is pre-cooked and can be thawed and eaten cold or cooked from frozen. Prior to cooking, rinse crab under cold water to remove salt water brine coated on legs that is used to preserve freshness.

Lobster: For best results, put lobster tails in their wrappers on a plate in the refrigerator the day before you plan to cook them. If you don't have time, soak the lobster tails in cold water until thawed. Lobster meat is pre-cooked and can be thawed and eaten cold or cooked from frozen.
Shrimp: Shrimp also thaw best overnight in the refrigerator. For quicker thawing, take the shrimp out of the package and put in a bowl of cold water, letting a trickle of cold water run into the bowl while excess water goes down the drain. The shrimp should be ready to cook in about 15 minutes using this method. Shrimp can also be boiled from frozen.
