Master the Art of Basting – Beyond the Holiday Bird
Professional chefs know the secret: basting isn't just for turkeys. It's a fundamental technique that elevates everything from weeknight chicken breasts to special occasion roasts. By continuously coating your food with pan juices, melted butter, marinades, or flavorful sauces, you're building moisture and flavor with every application. The result? Meat that's tender and juicy on the inside with a beautiful, caramelized exterior.
