Q:

Hy I am starting to cook and after watching this video ( http://how2heroes.com/videos/entrees/braised-lamb-shanks-w-farro ) I was wondering how they do it in restaurants, I mean, braising takes hours. So the question is: reheating, how do profesional cooks do it? Doesnt reheating affect the meat maybe by drying it? Thank you!

    Cook according to your recipe then remove from oven and set aside at room temp.Do not cool or refrigerate, when ready for dinner heat slowly. The key is timing,You have to serve within 4 to 5 hours of cooking. This works great with chicken dishes as well...Good Luck Maurice
