The present invention provides a tray for frozen food enabling frozen food
such as frozen sushi on the tray to be suitably thawed and to provide a
frozen food package or a frozen sushi package using this tray, and a
method of thawing frozen sushi in this package. The tray for frozen food
1 comprises a base 3, concavities 2 caved in the base 3, a surrounding
wall 4 standing from the periphery of the base 3, a flange 5 composing
the top end of the surrounding wall 4, a downward flap 6 extending
downwardly from the outer peripheral edge of the flange 5, an overhanging
portion 7 overhanging outward from the lower edge of the downward flap 6,
ribs 8 formed at corners between the base 3 and the surrounding wall 4,
and bulges 9 standing from the base 3. The tray 1 is composed of a body
1a made of a synthetic resin and a dielectric material layer 1b formed on
the outer surface of the body 1a. Frozen sushi 10 is disposed such that
the shari ball 11 is entirely or mostly positioned within the concavity 2
and the neta 12 is entirely positioned above the level of the base 3. The
frozen sushi is thawed in such a manner that the shari ball 11 is thawed
with heat transmitted from the dielectric material layer 1b by heating
the frozen food package by a microwave oven and the neta 12 is thawed
with heat transmitted from the shari ball 11 after stopping heating the
package in the microwave oven.
