11 things about Cook’s Illustrated All-Time Best Recipes

1. Cook’s Illustrated recipes, testings, and tastings can be found in Cook’s Illustrated magazine and cookbooks, online at CooksIllustrated.com, or featured on our public television show, America’s Test Kitchen.

2. Cook’s Illustrated, launched in 1993, is located just outside Boston where a team of more than three dozen test cooks, editors, and cookware specialists work in a 2,500-square-foot test kitchen.

3. Along with developing recipes, our test kitchen team exhaustively tests kitchen equipment and does blind tastings of supermarket ingredients to tell home cooks which brands to buy…and which to avoid.

4. To commemorate our 20th Anniversary, we have published Cook’s Illustrated All-Time Best Recipes, our 96- page recipe collection celebrating our very best recipes.

5. Cook’s Illustrated All-Time Best Recipes features a wide-array of dishes—from breakfasts, breads, sides, pasta and sauces, to main courses and desserts.

6. Over the past 20 years, Cook’s Illustrated editors have tested, tweaked, and foolproofed thousands of recipes for the pages of the magazine.

7. Our mission is to test recipes over and over again until we understand how and why they work and until we arrive at the “best” version of a particular recipe.

8. More than one million Cook’s Illustrated readers rely on Cook’s Illustrated reviews to make smarter decisions about which cooking products and ingredient brands to buy.

9. We then construct our own hybrid recipe and continue to test it, varying the ingredients, techniques, and cooking times until we reach a consensus.

10. We start the process of testing each recipe with a complete lack of conviction, which means that we accept no claim, no theory, no technique, and no recipe at face value.

11. We simply assemble as many variations as possible, test half a dozen of the most promising, and taste the results blind.
