Summary: Stop Your Complaining and Start Cooking
Comment: About two years ago I received a copy of THE BEST RECIPE from a dear friend as a gift. An avid baker, I immediately turned to all of the desserts and started baking away. Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies and Cheesecake Brownies are among just a few of my favorites.
Since that day, I have expanded my repertoire to SOUPS & STEWS, AMERICAN CLASSICS, and my husband's favorite, GRILLING. I have my favorites in each book including my latest of Blueberry Buckle Cobbler and Chewy Fudgy Triple Chocolate Brownies from AMERICAN CLASSICS.
Now, my Williams Sonoma cookbooks are in the attic along with the dozen or so other cookbooks. I keep my Cook's Illustrated cookbooks out at all times and have NEVER ONCE been disappointed.
Since that day two years ago when my dear friend gave me the copy of THE BEST RECIPE, I have passed on this same gift experience to my mother, grandmother, aunt and friends. Every single one of them has become hooked on the Cooks Illustrated Series and the quality of our cooking has improved immensely.
So, to the complainer in California...why not stop looking for similar recipes and start trying the hundreds of original recipes in each and every Cook's Illustrated book?

Summary: More of the same.
Comment: I agree with the reader from California. I treat Cook's Illustrated as gospel, and use only Cook's recipes. I bought The Best Recipe, I bought Soups and Stews, and Grilling. I ordered American Classics with The America's Test Kitchen book, and upon opening both books, I discovered that they're just full of repeats. Granted, this book had less than the ATK book but I became a little fed up and returned both books. It seemed as though I was paying for a Boston Baked Beans recipe. Maybe I'll give this book another chance.

Summary: Excellent Cookbook for First Time Cooks
Comment: I have tried nearly every recipe in this cookbook. All of them came out well, and the explanations that come with the recipes are excellent.
You can find more recipes in the Joy of Cooking, but you won't be as assured the food will taste good. Cooks Illustrated runs through several iterations to create the "perfect" recipe. Most of the ingredients are simple and readily available. The instructions are easy to follow.
This is an excellent cookbook for inexperienced and experienced cooks alike.
