  • Perfect poached chicken breasts

  • Lemon pudding cakes

      These came out wonderfully, which was especially nice given that I'd been avoiding pudding cakes ever since making a terrible chocolate one many years ago. Cake layer was light and tender and pudding layer was smooth and creamy. Wonderful lemon flavor. I didn't make the optional blueberry compote but they were still delicious and moist without it. I was a bit short on lemon juice (~1 tbsp) and topped off with store-bought orange juice. I used ramekins labeled "8 oz" which have a capacity more like 7 oz when measured. The batter nearly filled them completely so I was glad they were a bit bigger vs. smaller than what was called for in the recipe. Not a difficult recipe, but it does dirty a fair number of dishes for the yield. Leftovers kept well over several days.

Publishers Text

Cook's Illustrated is dedicated to finding the best methods for preparing foolproof home-cooked meals. Unlike some glossy cooking magazines, our magazine is staffed with cooks and editors not food stylists. Our 2,500 square foot test kitchen — the same kitchen in which we film our public television show, America's Test Kitchen — has three dozen full-time test cooks whose 9 to 5 job (well maybe 7 to 6 on baking days) is testing and retesting recipes 20, 30, sometimes 50 times until we can offer our readers a recipe we're confident will work every time. (Of course you have to promise to follow our recipes for those foolproof results.)

We also offer ratings and reviews of cookware and kitchen equipment to inform you how different models compare and compete so that you can shop smart. We taste test supermarket ingredients and kitchen staples you use every day, so you know which brands taste best, and which are best avoided. And because Cook's Illustrated is 100% advertising FREE, you get unbiased, objective information.
