Publisher's Note
Which comes first when mashing potatoes--the butter or the milk? How do you roast a turkey so the breast is as moist and juicy as the legs? Is it possible to create a fudgy, cakey, chewy brownie all in one? Pam Anderson, executive editor of the highly successful magazine COOK'S ILLUSTRATED, painstakingly conducted test after test to arrive at not only the best recipe but frequently the most convenient and sensible one.
Industry reviews
Anderson, executive editor of Cook's Illustrated, follows in the footsteps of Christopher Kimball, CI's editor/publisher and author of The Cook's Bible, and Shirley O. Corriher, author of 1997 James Beard Award-winning CookWise. All detail their efforts through trial and error to find the best way to prepare specific recipes and rightfully claim considerable authority. Anderson's quest began as a personal mission to find the best way to cook "dishes I prepared frequently." Starting with 34 recipes for favorite American foods, from chicken soup and meat loaf to potato salad and strawberry shortcake, she recounts her attempts at perfection and then offers her tested variations of some 150 recipes. She is generous in paying credit to cooks from whom she learned e.g., Corriher, Edna Lewis, Betty Fussell and imparts valuable tips along with her own conclusions. Low-fat yogurt used as a moistener adds a nice tang to Meat Loaf. Brining brings out the best in Oven-Roasted Turkey with Giblet Pan Sauce. To achieve lush, large Muffins that rise right and overhang their cups, triple the recipe. For a non-weeping Lemon Meringue Pie, reheat the filling before piling on the beaten egg whites. While covering territory mapped by others, Anderson offers distinctive guidelines on her route to reliable, speedy kitchen success. Line drawings by Judy Love. BOMC Good Cook selection; author tour. (July) Lopate Anderson is executive editor of Cook's Illustrated, whose editor, Christopher Kimball, presented his take on "the best of American home cooking" in The Cook's Bible (LJ 10/15/96). Here she offers her absolute favorite recipes for about three dozen standards, from Macaroni and Cheese and Memorable Meat Loaf to Strawberry Shortcake. Her approach is that of the magazine, testing and retesting, trying a variety of kitchen experiments before settling on a foolproof satisfying recipe. Most of the final recipes are accompanied by several variations; there are boxes on ingredients and culinary discoveries along the way, and the detailed testing notes describe the process involved. For fans of the magazine and others seeking a reliable collection of recipes for all-American favorites. Kakutani
