Behind the Scenes at America’s Test Kitchen

by

Hello from America’s Test Kitchen!

This morning, I took a tour of America’s Test Kitchen. It’s public television’s most watched cooking show! They also put out tons of cookbooks (around 80 since they started) and two magazines (Cook’s Illustrated and Cook’s Country). You can check out all the cool things they do here.

Here are some photos of what goes on in their small-town, totally unassuming from the outside, studio:

They have lots of everything. Here’s a glimpse of their cookware:

Oh and all their napkins and dishcloths….
And then of course, there’s their cookbook library, which takes up the walls of an enormous rectangular room with a long wooden table in the middle for tastings.
Then the test kitchen and studio…talk about a lot of cooks in the kitchen – and everyone is completely focused on their task.
You can see they have some camera and lighting equipment set up for the show:

Lots and lots of dishware…wrapped in plastic to make sure nothing breaks or gets dusty:

Mother-daughter dinner tonight! Another easy grain Mother-daughter dinner tonight! Another easy grain bowl. Broiled salmon takes 10-15 minutes. Put it over red rice (cooked in rice cooker while I put the baby to bed), and topped with cucumber,  avocado, toasted sesame seeds, seaweed, and wasabi with teriyaki sauce. Inspired by @skinnytaste and @heatherkjonesrd Seattle salmon.
I was craving something wholesome and #plantbased I was craving something wholesome and #plantbased (but I still wanted my chicken!). Made this from scratch after putting the baby to sleep so while it looks like a lot of time, it wasn’t! What you see: Lemon-garlic marinated chicken, sautéed mushrooms, maple roasted carrots, roast sweet potatoes, and pre-washed spinach on brown rice with TJ’s green goddess dressing.
