How can you tell if if a meal is thawed?

Question

I am planning to place a meal (salmon + rice) in a refrigerator after having frozen it.

How can I tell when it's thawed?

Aside from simply feeling the package, a thermometer would be the most accurate way to tell.

thanks for the response - what temperature range should I be looking for? – nz_21 Aug 17 '20 at 00:16
32F (0C) is the freezing point of water. Most refrigerators are below 40F (4C), but above 32F (0C). – moscafj Aug 17 '20 at 00:32
so a properly thawed meal should be between 0C - 4C? – nz_21 Aug 17 '20 at 16:12
0C will be frozen. Above 4C puts you in the danger zone. – moscafj Aug 17 '20 at 16:37
