Timing Can Reduce Food Costs

Contributed By: Executive Chef Henri Chazaud

When foods are plentiful, they are typically less expensive. So knowing harvest times can lead to money-saving tasty meals. For example, for about three weeks out of the year, you can get Copper River salmon. Costco has it for about $13.99/lb fresh, wild, and delisiosa! High in flavor, most other retailers are selling it for $18-30/lb.
