Cooking Tip

Don’t Add Fat To Dishes

Add as little outside fat when cooking fat, to avoid adding calories and fat to pork dishes. Non-stick skillets help, as do cooking sprays.

Cooking Tip

Pork Juices

Pan drippings from pork roasts are great as starters for sauces and soups. Cool pork fat in the refrigerator, where the fat will rise to the top and can be removed and discarded.
