As we like to say at Cook's Illustrated, "We make the mistakes so you don't have to."

QUICK TIPS

Chasing Beef and Broccoli • My take on this ever-evolving Chinese American staple features a 2:1 ratio of leafy gai lan to supple filet mignon, along with a good dose of briny oyster sauce.

Portugal’s Simple Seafood Stew • My cataplana captures the treasures of the Algarve region—abundant fresh seafood, smoky cured meat, vibrant paprika—in a rich, ruddy broth.

The Best Way to Eat an Artichoke • Carciofialla giudia is crunchy, crispy, creamy, and visually striking. It’s also the Roman Jewish community’s most iconic preparation.

Give Poached Eggs the Royal Treatment • Garlicky yogurt crowned with a just-set egg and gilded with spiced butter, çılbır has been simple, stunning Turkish fare since the Ottoman Empire.

Flaky Fruit Pie—But Make It Portable • Turning pie into a handheld package puts all the best qualities of fruit-filled pastry within your grasp.

Why You Should Braise Asparagus • This oft-overlooked technique results in silky, sweet-nutty spears.

Crudités Make a Comeback • Best-in-show produce and vibrant dips refresh this retro spread.

Cooking with Plant-Based Beef • Today’s ground meat alternatives can’t simply be substituted 1 to 1 for animal protein. Use our pointers to deliver satisfying vegan versions of comfort-food mainstays.

Ireland’s Potato Pancakes • Pan boxty, from the country’s Northwest, is a buttery, griddled mash-up of mashed and shredded spuds.

A Feather Bed of a Loaf • With its thin crust, cloudlike crumb, and enduring freshness, Japan’s shokupan is a baker’s delight.

Is Induction the Future of Cooking? • Everything you need to know about induction burners and stoves.
