Sterling eBook ISBN: 978-1-58816-841-2 The Good Housekeeping Triple-Test Promise At Good Housekeeping, we want to make sure that every recipe we print works in any oven, with any brand of ingredient, no matter what. Thats why, in our test kitchens at the Good Housekeeping Research Institute, we go all out: We test each recipe at least three timesand, often, several more times after that.
When a recipe is first developed, one member of our team prepares the dish and we judge it on these criteria: it must be delicious, family-friendly, healthy, and easy to make.
The recipe is then tested several more times to fine-tune the flavor and ease of preparation, always by the same team member, using the same equipment.
Next, another team member follows the recipe as written, varying the brands of ingredients and kinds of equipment. Even the types of stoves we use are changed.
A third team member repeats the whole process using yet another set of equipment and alternative ingredients.
By the time the recipes appear on these pages, they are guaranteed to work in any kitchen, including yours. WE PROMISE. Contents Ready to start cooking healthy meals and shaving off the pounds?
