At Good Housekeeping, we want to make sure that every recipe we share will work in your kitchen. That's why our team of culinary experts tests each recipe at least three times — and often, several more times after that. During the testing process, we switch up the appliances used (think: gas, electric and induction ranges) as well as the brands of ingredients. Dozens of people taste the dish along the way, helping us to develop the tastiest meals, sides, drinks and desserts.
