Every year, the test cooks at America's Test Kitchen develop hundreds of new recipes for our books, magazines, and highly rated public television show. And every year we collect our favorite recipes (no easy task!) and showcase them in this annual "best of the best" cookbook. Essentially a yearbook of our best recipes and most interesting discoveries, "The Best of America's Test Kitchen 2008" provides a revealing, behind-the-scenes look at what goes on in our test kitchen. Every recipe, from appetizers to desserts, features a write-up explaining why we selected it as a best recipe; we also include make-ahead instructions, tips on where things might go wrong, and step-by-step instructions.

Another hit from America's Test Kitchen,

This review is from: The Best of America's Test Kitchen 2008: The Year's Best Recipes, Equipment Reviews, and Tastings (Hardcover)
My husband and I own several of the Cook's Illustrated (America's Test Kitchen) cookbooks and the magazine is fab. This is another winner from these great folks. For years my husband showed no interest in cooking. Then he pulled their cookbook America's Test Kitchen's Family Cookbook off the shelf and he was hooked. I highly recommend all their publications.

So easy to cook from and worth every penny...,

This review is from: The Best of America's Test Kitchen 2008: The Year's Best Recipes, Equipment Reviews, and Tastings (Hardcover)
After borrowing this book from a local library, I just had to purchase it. I have to admit that I am a tried and true Bon Apetit cook and usually don't stray, but I've tried MOST of the recipes in the book and boy are they easy to make and delicious. It has taken the guess work out of "What's for dinner?"
Special raves from the family were the 30 minute meat loaves, the slow cooker brisket and onions and those Chinese sticky ribs... I've made those 5 times since I purchased the book! YUMmmmm... The greatest advantage of all of the recipes tried is that the items needed for each recipe are readily had from your local grocer and have been tested so you WON'T waste your time and more importantly, your hard-earned money. If you are tired of trying to come up with wonderful ideas for dinner, look no more. It's right at your fingertips! Merry Street/Zenspiration Gardens www.Zen-opolis.com

Love this Book!,

This review is from: The Best of America's Test Kitchen 2008: The Year's Best Recipes, Equipment Reviews, and Tastings (Hardcover)
I love everything from "America's Test Kitchens". Their books are easy to read and follow and they have taken all of the guess work out of making everyday recipes. You end up with the tried and true version and they haven't let me down yet.
I received this book just before Christmas and made a dessert from one of the many receipes. It turned out perfect! Keep these books coming!
