We love leftovers. In many cases the flavors can blend and even improve with an extra day or two. The only downside is that sometimes the reheating method leaves something to be desired. It’s always easy to microwave something for a few minutes but this often results in molten outsides cold insides and strange rubbery textures. Many leftovers are best reheated using the original cooking method: soups stews and braises in a pot over medium heat; casseroles lasagnas; baked chicken and turkey in the oven.
The original method isn’t always convenient or even possible though. With that in mind we’ve taken a look at some of our most popular recipes and discovered the best ways to reheat them bringing them back to their original glory.
