Its funny, I don't know what or why I buy this or that mag but I certianly do have my favorites. I will buy most any of the foodie mags but only two religiously.

They are Cooks Illustrated and Fine Cooking. I find both to be supurlatibe.

I am with you otter. I subscribe to Cuisine at Home and I but Cooks Illustrated in the store on occasion. I love that there are no ads. Both have great tips and go into a lot of detail.

thanks to pa baker for this thread. dw is always asking me what do i want for presents, ya know, like for christmas and birfdays, but there's almost nothing i really want or need anymore (except a 27 hour day). a cooking mag is a good idea for a present. i'm gonna read all of your posts and decide which one i think i'd like. any suggestions for a home cook that doesn't have time for really complicated and in-depth recipes and ingredients, and doesn't bake sweets or desserts very often?????

buckytom, Cook's Illustrated sounds like what you are looking for, but I would suggest you check out the various mags at your local magazine vendor and see which one(s) appeal to you.

None, but I used to subscribe to food and wine, and gourmet, but got bored with them.

look at the taste of home website. All recipes are normal, nothing with crazy-weirdo "can only buy in northern maine" kinda recipes.
These are down home, family cooking, good eats recipes. They even have a "men who run the range" section. Maybe we could finally get to see you!
