All About Animal Fats

Fats can make or break your meal.

Quality cooking fats will embrace the flavors you introduce them to: fragrant, fresh-picked rosemary, spicy Thai peppers, pungent black mustard seeds. They carry flavors into all the nooks and crannies of your stir fry, lamb roast, and cranberry scones. Fats are a metabolism-boosting, nutrient-dense macronutrient. They nourish you deeply, from brain to microbiome, and help you feel satisfied at the end of a meal. And, they taste amazing. And, they taste amazing.

But how do you choose a quality cooking fat? Does it need refrigeration once it’s opened? What kind of storage container is best?
