Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

The full-fat dairy and the moderate use of butter and olive oil that characterize classical French cooking, which Child championed, align closely with the Mediterranean dietary pattern now recognized as one of the most health-supportive available. Child herself, who ate with genuine pleasure and without dietary anxiety throughout her life, lived to ninety-one — a biographical data point that she would have appreciated being noted.
