Homemade soups, sauces, gravies and broth taste great, but they can add a lot of unnecessary fat to your diet. Rid your food of these impurities by straining any solids out, and then chilling the liquid portion separately. You’ll notice that once your liquid portion has cooled, the fat will have risen to the top. Skimming most of the fat out of your cooking is an easy way to save some calories while embracing a healthier lifestyle.*
Enjoy your favorite sauces and gravies a healthier way by skimming out the fat. Any spoon or ladle will work; keep a discard bowl nearby to make clean up a cinch!
