What Good Cooks Know

Marisa Eikenberry

If you like to cook and really enjoy learning the science behind the recipes and techniques, then you'll definitely want to pick up this book.

I really enjoyed learning how America's Test Kitchen tests products, recipes, and ingredients. It was nice to see a bit of a "peek behind the curtain" for this wonderful company.

I also happen to own The America's Test Kitchen Cooking School Cookbook so much of the tips and instructions in this book were the same. So if you already own that book, I wouldn't recommend picking up this one. But if this is your first taste of cooking techniques and America's Test Kitchen, I would highly recommend it. 

4 Stars.
