Cook’s Country Eats Local is another well-tested cookbook from America’s Test Kitchen. It includes recipes from New England/Mid-Atlantic, Appalachia/South, Midwest/Great Plains and Texas/West. Bear in mind that not every state is equally represented and there aren’t recipes from every state included in the cookbook. If you are looking to meal plan, keep in mind that there are quite a few dessert, bread and biscuit rolls included.
Recipes are accompanied by full-color photographs of the finished dishes, and all are limited to one page so there’s no need to flip through with dirty fingers while cooking. For the most part, there’s no fancy ingredients or hours of preparation needed for these recipes; they come together quickly after a long day working.
Chicken Riggies from Utica, New York – This was fantastic and could easily be made vegetarian by skipping the chicken. The Test Kitchen’s method of poaching the chicken in the sauce was brilliant, saves cooking time and results in perfectly tender, flavorful chicken.
Corned Beef and Cabbage – We found it took about twice as long to steam the carrots and cabbage and needed to add additional broth to the pan to prevent them from burning. Other than that, this was the best corned beef and cabbage I’ve ever had. We’ll make this one again for St. Patrick’s Day.
Pimento Cheeseburgers – I would definitely make these again. America’s Test Kitchen has a great technique for making stuffed burgers that prevents the cheesy filling from oozing out while cooking. I added chipotle peppers to my pimento cheese for a smoky, spicy kick.
Chili Rellenos Casserole – Delicious! Be sure to drain any grease well before assembling the final casserole so that it doesn’t come out greasy, especially if you don’t use 90% lean ground beef as directed. I didn’t and had to blot the top my casserole.
King Rach Casserole – Wow! Cheesy deliciousness with a perfect amount of heat.
