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!

Hershey’s Cookies ‘N’ Creme Fangs Are Back for the First Time in Two Years

The individually-wrapped format of Hershey’s Cookies ‘N’ Creme Fangs is one of the most effective natural portion control tools in the candy aisle — each bar is snack-sized rather than full-sized, making it easy to have one and feel satisfied without working through a full bar. When buying Halloween candy this early in the season, storing it somewhere less visible — a cabinet rather than a bowl on the counter — dramatically reduces the likelihood of mindless snacking between now and October. Out of sight really does mean out of mind when it comes to candy.

Baking rather than frying keeps these pretzels significantly lighter than their deep-fried counterparts while still achieving a satisfying golden exterior. The pickle juice contributes natural sodium and vinegar, which means less added salt is needed to achieve bold, well-seasoned flavor throughout the dough.

The Pasta That Takes Twenty Minutes and Tastes Like It Took All Day

Pasta — particularly pasta made from semolina durum wheat and cooked al dente — has a significantly lower glycemic index than most other refined grain preparations, producing a slower and more sustained blood glucose response than white bread, white rice, or overcooked pasta made from the same flour. The al dente cooking that professional cooks prefer for texture reasons also preserves the pasta’s intact starch structure, which slows digestion and moderates the glycemic response further. Adding olive oil and protein-containing ingredients — anchovies, tuna, eggs, cheese — to pasta further reduces the glycemic impact of the meal by slowing the digestion of the carbohydrates, making a properly made pasta with protein and good fat a metabolically appropriate meal for most people.
