I think by running hot water over the frozen vegetable in a strainer and then steaming the thawed vegetable on a stove top or in a microwave insert. Lot of preservative comes down into the bottom tray leaving the vegetable more nutritious and free of some preservatives at the top.

What is the nutritional value of frozen vegetables?

There are pros and cons to fresh and frozen vegetables. Fresh vegetables can lose 10 to 15 percent of their nutrients during shipping from the grower, to the market and then to your table. Frozen are picked and processed soon after they are picked. Frozen vegetables will retain most of their nutrients. However if the vegetables are blanched (dipped in hot water for 5 minutes) to keep their color and texture, some nutrients are lost. 3 to 5 servings a day of vegetables is recommended.
