'America's Test Kitchen: Season 15'
(Christopher Kimball / 4-Disc DVD / NR / 2015 / PBS)

Overview: Join Christopher Kimball and the cast of America's Test Kitchen to reveal the test kitchen's secrets to foolproof cooking at home. From the Best Chicken Stew and Shrimp Fra Diavolo, to the Best Baguette and Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies, these recipes will work the first time you try them.

DVD Verdict: My goodness! 'America's Test Kitchen - Season Fifteen' (I know, right!) is a four-DVD set packed with thirteen hours of delicious episodes of the most-watched cooking show on public television. Each of the recipes presented has been fine-tuned and tweaked to virtual perfection by dozens of expert test cooks. In addition to the recipes themselves, episodes offer taste tests of supermarket goods, ratings of assorted kitchen equipment and tools from blenders to personal teapots, and solid grocery shopping advice.

Indeed, watching this for the very first time, it's obvious that cooks of all skill and experience levels, from family meal providers to professional restaurateurs, are sure to appreciate the value, research, and practical wisdom found within 'America's Test Kitchen - Season Fifteen' (or any of the other seasons, of course!)
