I heart my America's Test Kitchen Family Cookbook.
Best. Cookbook. Ever. If you have the chance to peruse its pages at a book store near you, I highly recommend it. I got the giant extreme mega hard cover binder version. (CON: It's huge; and you have to put the binder tabs in the right section yourself. PRO: Carrying it around your kitchen doubles as your cardio.)
If you're like me, you'll get sucked in and suddenly realize you're reading it like a novel and admit to yourself that you're going to have to purchase the dang thing. Something about the fact that all the recipes contained in it were tested for optimal deliciousness just sets my mind at ease. And sprinkled throughout are the little product recommendations (a plastic spatula, or a rubber one? which is better? they'll tell you!) and friendly tips for people who might not have gone to culinary school (blanch oven fries first for optimum crispy outsides and creamy insides-- it removes the starch.) Who knew?! America's Test Kitchen, that's who.
