Just holding it under water won't defrost it that much faster. If you want speed then running water (even cold) over it increases speed significantly. You don't need much water running just high enough that there is some constant exchange happening.

    Counter Space Cramped And Spices Scattered Like Confetti? This Magnetic Stove Shelf Will Have Your Kitchen Organized And Your Inner Chef Saying 'Mise En Place!

    Review: "Anytime I find a product that helps keep me organized, I'm thrilled. This one is super handy. I have it atop my stove, and since the bottom is silicone, the heat doesn't affect it. I wouldn't keep spices here, though, because I always worry that the heat from the stove will affect the quality of the spice. I keep a few frequently used utensils, and basic salt and pepper here." - Rebecca Bollinger
