a thick pot of hot food could dangerously cool your fridge temp. i let it cool in the air until the steam isn't so heavy then spread into a thin layer on a cookie sheet which i then pop in the freezer. cools pretty quick.
Yes, yes you can. Although be aware, this will bring the temperature of your fridge up a bit & make it work overtime. Your food will be fine though. A better option would be to stick the bowl in another bowl with ice & water for a minute, then stick it in the fridge.
While it's warm, yes, while it's hot, no. It's always best to let food cool slightly before putting it in the fridge.
if you wanna cool t quickly why not put it in the freezer for 30 so seconds?
yes i have before because somethimes i make alot and save it for later
