Christopher Kimball

Host and founder of America's Test Kitchen

America’s Test Kitchen is a real place: a no-nonsense,
fully equipped test kitchen located just outside Boston,
MA, where a team of highly qualified test cooks and editors
perform thousands of tests every year. The goal? To develop
the best recipes and cooking techniques, recommend the best
cookware and equipment, and rate brand-name pantry staples
for home cooks. America’s Test Kitchen is devoted to a
collegial approach to cooking—teams of editors, writers,
and cooks engage in side-by-side comparisons, blind taste
tests, and rigorous equipment performance tests to
determine which pans work and which ones don’t, which brand
of ketchup tastes best, and so on.

America’s Test Kitchen accepts no advertising. We are a
private company with no affiliations with large publishers,
cookware manufacturers, or food purveyors, which means that
our content is unbiased and objective.
