Illustrated recipes are almost always perfect, This cookbook is fun to cook out of, my only complaints aremeatcity! andnot for the calorieconscious, Hamburger Helper your ubiquitous presence in my childhood taught me that onedish meals were awesome, As I got older, I grew to know that it could be better, Much better.

The people behind Cook's Illustrated once again take their expertise and thoroughness in recipe testing and apply it to dishes that I think would be great for people with limited kitchen space, or for beginning cooks that don't want to keep track of three pots on the stove and two dishes in the oven.
A goodinch ovenproof skillet and this book will help you make baked ziti, stratas, pizzas, cobblers, souffles, . . and that's just to start, These recipes look and sound so amazing that I can't wait to try some!

The saving grace of this book is its instruction in how to care for one's skillets, That part alone can save one hundreds of dollars in ruined pans, Made a few recipes and they turned out great!

They explain the why and how and the failures! of recipes, focusing on how to make the best of the best, . and they succeed. Good food, good recipes, good directions, Good book. Who wouldn't want to make an entire meal in one pan
Everything I've

made from this book was yummy and we have a new favorite pasta recipe in our rotation now.
I love that you can cook pasta in one pan without dragging out another saucepan and colander that have to be cleaned later, I expected this book to contain many new recipes than 'The Best Recipes,' which I already own, From that perspective, it did not wow me, I tried a pasta recipe, and it turned out fine, but given that I own more than I skillet, I would rather shorten the cooking time by boiling the pasta while I'm making the sauce, rather than making a wetter sauce and cooking the pasta in it afterwards.
Like other Cook's Illustrated books, it is well written, but this will not find a permanent place on my bookshelf, For a full review, see my blog at heartmyyurt, blogspot. com Cherry cobbler in a skillet Get in my belly!
