You baste meat by squirting or brushing liquid, such as melted butter or broth, on the meat while it is roasting. You do this to maintain flavor and moisture in your meat.

To baste means to stitch temporarily. Basting is also sometimes called tacking.

When making up a garment, basting ensures that the fabric pieces are held in the correct place, without distortion, until they have been stitched together permanently.

After the permanent seaming has been done, basting stitches are removed.
