Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Chicago thin-crust pizza

    • sarahawker on September 06, 2018

      Made this twice now. Family (and husband from Chicago) LOVED this. The dough works very easily.

    • twoyolks on October 16, 2018

      I followed the recipe pretty closely but my dough had a lot of oven spring so it wasn't really thin crust. I found the sauce to be too sweet and there seemed to be too much cheese.

    • dbuhler on August 19, 2023

      This was delicious and so easy to make! I tend to gravitate towards thick crust pizzas so this was a nice change. My son loved that the slices were cut into squares because the middle pieces didn't have a crust! I sauce was flavorful, but the slices did end up a little watery...I'm not sure what caused that. I want to make this again!

      So good. Have made many times

  • Easy sweet Italian sausage

    • sarahawker on September 06, 2018

      THIS is the sausage my husband has been missing from Chicago. Perfect and super easy.

  • Corn and bacon pasta

    • twoyolks on August 27, 2018

      This was very good but very rich.

    • sarahawker on September 06, 2018

      Good, not a big hit with the kids but they did eat it.

    • anya_sf on September 05, 2024

      We really enjoyed this. I added some cooked green beans since I always like a green vegetable.

  • Green goddess roast chicken

    • twoyolks on August 27, 2018

      Decent flavor when the sauce was added. This was easy to make. Just wasn't anything special.

  • Grilled chicken satay

    • Partyof7 on August 19, 2021

      Only made the peanut sauce. Flat out 5 stars! So much more complex and delicious than ordinary peanut sauce (coconut milk+ fish sauce+ curry powder) yummmm with ATK Grilling book Beef Satay

  • French onion hamburgers steaks with potatoes and gravy

    • jayg312 on February 12, 2019

      Not bad for a quick weeknight meal that yields a few leftover lunches. The gravy is good and easy to make.

    • Rinshin on April 03, 2023

      Wanting some flavors of Americana after a trip to Japan, this was such an easy soul warming and very satisfying meal for us. Used mixed mushrooms for the sauce and added 1/4 lb ground pork to the beef mixture as well as some bottled yakiniku sauce for more flavor. Added a splash to the sauce as well. Potatoes were good with garlic flavor. Photo added.

  • Quick green chicken chili

    • twoyolks on February 21, 2019

      The quality of the chili is directly dependent on the quality of the green salsa. This was fast to make and pretty good. I used left over chicken.

  • Chorizo and potato quesadillas

    • puddlemere on October 29, 2018

      Simple and satisfying. I had some extra baby Yukon Gold potatoes, so I just sliced them thinly, boiled them, and then added them in with the chorizo instead of using the frozen potatoes.

    • Shewi128 on June 30, 2023

      The flavors were very good and the quesadillas were easy to make.

  • Grilled steak sandwiches

    • Aiolar on April 23, 2023

      Mix sauce w/ fork or whisk - doesn't need a food processor.

  • Easy egg rolls

    • BethNH on July 31, 2018

      I LOVED this recipe. I was able to buy everything I needed at my local rural supermarket. They took a surprisingly short time to make. My egg roll wrappers may have been smaller than those used in this recipe because I got 10 egg rolls. I Googled how to roll egg rolls and found a good video which made me feel more confidant. We all enjoyed these and I look forward to making them again.

  • Blueberry cornbread

    • ChristineL32707 on June 09, 2019

      This is unexpectedly delicious. I've made it multiple times for different people and have been asked to share the recipe. I've made it with fresh and frozen blueberries. Followed the recipe precisely because of Cook's Country recommendations (mainly the brand of cornmeal) and it's never failed. Make this! You won't be sorry.

Cook's Country showcases "country cooking": simple, great-tasting homemade food--Sunday dinners, potluck suppers, backyard barbecues, and even kids' birthday parties. And you can be sure that Cook's Country's recipes will come out right the first time, and every time, you go in the kitchen. We've taken the obsessive recipe development techniques that we've polished through years at America's Test Kitchen (which involve testing and tweaking recipes as many as 100 times until we are certain that anyone who follows them will meet with success) and brought them to Cook's Country. Cook's Country's mission is to reclaim, revive, and restore classic American heirloom recipes.
