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 Stone Fruit Reckoning: What to Do With Too Many Peaches

Peaches and other stone fruits are significant dietary sources of several important nutrients that peak-season specimens provide in higher concentrations than their out-of-season counterparts. Peak-season peaches contain measurably higher levels of vitamin C, beta-carotene, and the flavonoid chlorogenic acid — a potent antioxidant associated with reduced inflammation and improved cardiovascular markers — than early-season or commercially ripened alternatives. The carotenoids that give ripe peaches their deep orange-gold color are fat-soluble, meaning that serving peaches with dairy fat — the cream, the yogurt, the butter used in a skillet preparation — significantly increases the absorption of these compounds compared to eating the fruit alone.
