I donât play favorites with the books we publish. Having said that, I admit that I love our Best of Americaâs Test Kitchen annual cookbook series. From among the 1,000+ recipes developed each year for [Cookâs Illustrated]( and [Cookâs Country]( magazines, our TV shows, and recent cookbooks, our editors nominate their favorites, and a heated competition ensues as we winnow the collection down to about 135 recipes. This yearâs constellation of star recipes is the best Iâve seen (and tasted).
We also include signature test kitchen resources, including featured product ratings from the magazines (not just the top picks but all the sous vide machines we recommended, all the oat milk we tasted, etc.), 30+ ingenious quick tips submitted by readers, and the yearâs Cookâs Illustrated kitchen basics features (âMake Quick Pickles Part of Your Routine,â âHoliday Food Gifts,â and more).
[This really is a special collection]( of hours of test kitchen work distilled into one beautiful hardcover book. Buy your 2023 edition directly from the test kitchen and weâll include the 2022 edition as well. That means youâll save 65% on the combined cover price of both books!

[Msakhan](
From More Mediterranean
Msakhan
Our version of this Palestinian dish keeps its traditional elements intact while providing store-bought substitutes and adaptations for the home kitchen when needed. To find a substitute for the taboon bread, we opted for supermarket naan. To cut down on cooking time, we relied on chicken pieces, which we cooked atop a layer of chopped onions and spices. Since this dish is traditionally eaten with the hands, we crisped the naan under the broiler before piling on the onion mixture and chicken to prevent sogginess.
[Beef Yakamein](
From Cook’s Country Magazine
Beef Yakamein
This soup evolved to combine the flavors of New Orleansâ once bustling Chinatown with its Creole spices and soul food. We brown the beef chuck-eye roast before adding and sautéing the âholy trinityâ of aromaticsâonion, bell pepper, and celeryâto create a flavorful fond. Slowly simmering the roast in beef broth until itâs meltingly tender creates a concentrated soup stock, which we season with Creole spices, soy sauce, garlic, and monosodium glutamate. The result is as irresistible as those youâll find at soul food restaurants in New Orleans. NOTES FROM THE TEST KITCHEN Building the Bowl
The components of yakamein are layered sequentially, starting with the pasta and ending with the broth.

[Cauliflower Pasta with Browned-Butter Sage Sauce](
From Five-Ingredient Dinners
Cauliflower Pasta with Browned-Butter Sage Sauce
Waste not, want not with this decadent but simple-to-make recipe. Bolster the butter-based sauce with pasta water instead of draining away the cooking liquid. Use both the zest and juice of the lemon to add a floral, citrusy kick. And garnish the pasta with the fried sage leaves used to flavor the sauce. With just a few ingredients, thoughtfully used, this pasta packs a punch and showcases the nutty flavor of that cool-weather staple, cauliflower.
[Lumpiang Shanghai](
From Cookâs Illustrated Magazine
Lumpiang Shanghai
Lumpia are a Filipino treat, similar to an egg roll, served at parties and gatherings throughout the Philippines and in Filipino communities in the US. There are two methods for filling lumpia: Some cooks sauté the vegetables and meat before rolling them into the wrappers, while others merely mix the components together before filling the lumpia, allowing the meat mixture to cook during the frying process. We prefer the latter method because itâs quicker; plus, the raw meatâs sticky proteins bind the filling together, making it easier to shape the tidy rolls. Precooked fillings also sometimes dry out during the fry process, resulting in crumblier, less cohesive lumpia.
[Vegan Chocolate Mousse](
From Cook’s Illustrated Magazine
Vegan Chocolate Mousse
Using aquafaba, the viscous liquid found in canned chickpeas, instead of dairy and eggs, you can make a gossamer-light mousse with a profound chocolate flavor in minutes. Aquafaba whips into a stiff, snowy-white foam just like egg whites. Adding vegetable oil to the chocolate base contributes richness and, unlike the coconut oil often found in vegan mousse, doesnât give the dessert a grainy mouthfeel. For deep, complex chocolate flavor, use both solid chocolate and cocoa powder. Without the dulling effects of dairy, every nuance of chocolate flavor shines through. NOTES FROM THE TEST KITCHEN Donât Assume All Dark Chocolate Is Vegan
You may not realize it without examining the label, but some dark chocolates contain small amounts of milk products such as whey, casein, or milk solids. Furthermore, they may be sweetened with conventional granulated sugar, which is sometimes processed with bone char. To be sure that a dark chocolate is truly plant-based, look for âveganâ on the label. [Vegan and non-vegan dark chocolate](

[Breakfast Burrito with Poblano, Beans, Corn, and Crispy Potatoes, Garlicky Broiled Shrimp, Spiced Cauliflower Fritters](
And more—
135+ winning recipes in all . . .
Breakfast burritos are a filling, comforting meal, but why do so many of them contain soggy potatoes? Jessica Rudolph from Cookâs Country set out to make a breakfast burrito filled with potatoes that would stay crispy for hours, and potato tots did the trick. The results are her [Breakfast Burritos with Chorizo and Crispy Potatoes]( and [Breakfast Burrito with Poblano, Beans, Corn, and Crispy Potatoes](. Annie Petito of Cookâs Illustrated wanted to harness the ease and power of the broiler to cook shrimp without drying out the small shellfish. Her recipe for [Garlicky Broiled Shrimp]( achieves that by lightly salting the shrimp so they retain moisture even under high heat. Joseph Gitter, from our books team, created [Spiced Cauliflower Fritters]( for More Mediterranean. Home cooks everywhere can enjoy the crispy yet delicate fritters dipped into cool, creamy, turmeric-dyed yogurt sauce. [2022 and 2023 Editions](

[Tasting Oat Milk](
OAT MILK
Our favorite oat milk had âmild oatâ flavor and a âvery faint nuttiness.â With only 7 grams of sugar per serving, it was ânot too sweet.â Our testers called it âsupersmooth in coffee,â partly because of the addition of rapeseed oil, gellan gum, and phosphates. When subbed in for coconut milk in vegan biscuits, it produced tender, delicious results.
[Testing Inexpensive Blenders](
INEXPENSIVE BLENDERS
We set out to learn if blenders that cost around $100 could match the performance of some of the midpriced and high-end ones we recommend.
