300 Fast and Flavorful Recipes from America’s Most Trusted Test Kitchen Tired of quick recipes that aren’t really quick or don’t taste very good? While some cookbooks promise 30-minute meals, America’s Test Kitchen delivers. The Best 30-Minute Recipe is packed with more than 300 great-tasting recipes, along with time-saving techniques that will help you become more efficient in the kitchen. You’ll also find honest evaluations of ingredients important to quick cooking, such as chicken broth, preshredded cheese, instant rice, and more. And because the type of equipment you use is important to the success of any recipe—made in 30 minutes or not—we tell you which brands are worth buying. The Best 30-Minute Recipe features a surprisingly wide range of recipes. You get not only the very best versions of naturally quick dishes like salads and stir-fries, but also quick and easy recipes for typically long-cooking dishes that you’d never even think of making on a weeknight—including meatloaf, lasagna, beef pot pie, and a pad thai so easy that you may never call for takeout again. With efficiency and good taste, The Best 30-Minute Recipe is the time-pressed cook’s guide to getting dinner on the table, night after night. |

Summary: Go-To Recipe Book When I am planning out dinners for the week, this is my favorite cookbook to use. In the short time I have had this book I have made 5 different recipes and all have been pretty easy and turned out great. Unlike the other reviewers, they do take me longer than 30 minutes to make, although I think it'll be faster when I make something the second time. Our favorites so far are the Chicken Teriyaki, Sweet & Sour Stir Fry, and Steak Salad. I highly recommend it. Summary: Different recipes? I too am a Cook's Illustrated fanatic. Some of the comments seem to say that CI just takes the same recipes and shuffles them around in various cook books without much thought. I believed this too until I started doing some comparisons. For example, the recipe for skillet lasagna is now different than a previous version. Whether for the better or not, we'll see. I do believe that they go back to the individual recipes to make sure they work within the premise of the cookbook, here meals in 30-minutes. I can just see Kimball with his stopwatch timing them all. Summary: don't order this from Cooks Illustrated I agree with the reviewer who was frustrated with the amount of repackaging that Cooks does--although it is probably necessary for their business model, given that they accept no advertising. I have always been willing to pay their prices because of the quality of their recipes and of their techniques, and this book was no exception. What drove me over the edge was that, having ordered it from Cooks directly, I inadvertently got signed up for their "Automatic Preview Privilege," which meant that cookbooks just started showing up at my house. It tooks MONTHS to get them to stop. So, while I will keep buying their books and their magazine, I won't be doing it through them--will stick with Amazon, B&N, or my local bookstore. Summary: my new favorite recipe book Both my family and I love this book. It is by far my "go-to" cookbook. I have tried 4 recipes and we all love them. I appreciate the ease, speed, and the fact that I normally have the ingredients on hand. My family just loves the meals I turn out. I think this is a must-have on anyone's shelf, but particularly for the new cook. It encourages rather than discourages people to cook more at home. Summary: Good stuff I'm a fan of the Cook's Illustrated/America's Test Kitchen line of publications in general. Although these recipes sometimes take more than 30 minutes, they're really not all that far off. I'm a huge fan of the kung pao shrimp with ramen (which I make with chicken instead). The 30 minute meatball recipe is pretty good, too. This book must be pretty good - we've already got burn marks on the cover from use. |
