About Cook's Illustrated
Launched in 1980, Cook’s Illustrated is a cooking magazine from the same folks behind America’s Test Kitchen. Dedicated to finding the best methods for preparing foolproof home-cooked meals, the publication 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. The editors also offer ratings and reviews of cookware, kitchen equipment, supermarket ingredients, and kitchen staples. @cooksillustrated
