Don't fear fat embrace it from "summary" of Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat by Samin Nosrat

Fat is not the enemy. In fact, it is an essential component of cooking that adds flavor, richness, and texture to dishes. Many people have been taught to fear fat, believing that it is unhealthy and will lead to weight gain. However, in reality, fat is a crucial element in creating delicious and satisfying meals. When we embrace fat in our cooking, we open ourselves up to a world of possibilities. Fat carries flavors and helps them meld together, creating a harmonious and balanced dish. It provides a luscious mouthfeel that is often missing in low-fat or fat-free alternatives. By using the right fats in the right amounts, we can elevate our dishes to new heights. It is important to understand that not all fats are created equal. Some fats are healthier than others, such as olive oil, avocado oil, and nuts. These fats contain unsaturated fats that are beneficial for heart health. On the other hand, saturated fats found in butter and animal products should be consumed in moderation. In cooking, fat serves as a medium for heat transfer, helping to evenly cook food and prevent sticking. It also acts as a tenderizer, making meats and vegetables more succulent and flavorful. By mastering the art of using fats in cooking, we can unlock the full potential of our ingredients and create meals that are truly memorable. So, the next time you reach for the olive oil or butter, do so with confidence. Embrace the richness and depth of flavor that fat brings to your dishes. Experiment with different types of fats and discover how they can transform your cooking. Don't fear fat – embrace it as a valuable tool in your culinary repertoire.
