So I have a recipe that ended with “tent with aluminum foil and let rest for 5 minutes.” I never heard this phrase before, so I looked it up. There were multiple lengthy articles (for example) and it all comes down to: cover your food in aluminum foil to keep moisture from evaporating.

😡

That’s 5 minutes I will never get back.

~One article went so far as to suggest using broom handles or sticks. That one was kinda funny. 😂~

    Cover the pot with a damp cloth. Simpler, less wasteful, same effect. You often do that with yeast dough for example.
