Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Grilled chicken with adobo and sazón

    • Rinshin on August 29, 2021

      Oh goodness, made a mistake with this simple recipe for quickly glancing through ingredient list on my cutting board. Ugh! The chicken tasted ok, but it was awfully salty for my taste and found that this recipe calls for 1 tsp table salt. I used 1 tablespoon kosher salt. I assumed all CI recipes use kosher unless flavored. I like to make this again using less salt, but using kosher and not table.

  • Upside-down tomato tart

    • Kinhawaii on July 19, 2022

      Very delicious! Will definitely make again. Was easy to make too. I did use some marjoram inside since some here don’t like thyme. I think it’s better warm.

  • Chinese corn and chicken soup

    • ashallen on August 10, 2022

      Very nice soup with a creamy-textured broth and pops of sweetness from the corn kernels. The bits of ham and chicken were very tender and melted into the background. Next time I'll season to taste with salt and pepper before adding the eggs and let it sit a bit. Even though I added salt and pepper to the serving in my bowl, it didn't permeate the corn kernels, making it seem like it was still a bit underseasoned. The soup is pretty simple so good quality corn, chicken stock, and ham helps - next time I'll use a more interesting ham. Leftovers kept well to the next day.

  • Semolina and ricotta cake (Migliaccio de semolino)

    • Kinhawaii on August 24, 2021

      Nice moist cake-flan as the recipe described. Reminds me of clafoutis or a firm Japanese cheesecake. The center of mine puffed up a lot before browning- later collapsing while cooling. In my dark springform pan it took the full 60 minutes but I don’t think I overcooked it. I would prefer it with fruit or a compote. The citrus was more subtle than I expected & the cardamom stronger.

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 ó the same kitchen in which we film our public television show, America's Test Kitchen ó 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.
