ok, you got the right word, but why is unthaw wrong?

The correct word should be thaw.
To thaw is to defrost.
So to unthaw is to? Frost?
Doesn't make sense. Anyway, the word doesn't exist.

In conventional speech, one might be able to get away with unthaw. The problem is that when something thaws, it softens or melts, so unthaw makes it sound like it's freezing.

Unthaw would be to freeze again.

Thaw mean unfreeze, so unthaw would mean freeze (or re-freeze). You don't freeze your dinner before you eat it, unless you're having popsicles. If it's frozen, you thaw it or defrost it before cooking.
Does that make more sense?

Breakfast is a marvelous decision for an elementary meal. Grilled cheese and veggie soup is common also. I actually have a recipe for beef Chop Casserole. i take advantage of a 13x9in glass baking pan. you also want aluminum foil. elements: a million can creamy onion soup a million can cheddar soup 8 med potatoes 4-5 beef chops(no longer fairly skinny) placed beef chops in baking dish flat on the bottom. Slice potatoes on correct of this. blend both cans of soup mutually; pour on correct of beef chops and potatoes. Bake coated with aluminum foil at 400 ranges F for a million hour. The beef chops get fairly comfortable. I oftentimes basically warmth up a can of peas to bypass with it. I oftentimes placed salt and pepper on the beef chops and then I placed it on the potatoes to-basically on each and each and every layer. desire you try it!

“Unthaw” is another illogical negative. Use “thaw.”
