Does frozen milk thaw faster than frozen water?

In general, water with stuff dissolved in it has a lower freezing temperature than pure water. Milk is just water with stuff (fats, sugars, proteins) dissolved in it so it's freezing temperature should be lower than 0 degrees Celsius (the freezing temperature of water).Therefore, if you started with both frozen milk and frozen water at say -10 degrees Celsius and started slowly heating them both, the frozen milk will start thawing (melting) before the frozen water.

Is it ok to thaw chicken in hot water?

It will affect the taste of the final product. Warm water will equally thaw the food. Hot water will thaw out the outside before the inside is thawed. One should never thaw meat in water unless you are going to cook it in water. It removes some of the taste in the food Thawing meat in water will decrease the nutritional value of the meat as the nutrients are lost in the water. Furthermore it is not recommended to thaw meat in still water as it will increase the microbial growth. Rather thaw in the fridge or microwave or if you must use water rather thaw under running water (this is safer than still water).
