What cooking related magazines do you subscribe to that you find helpful in your PC biz? I'm just getting back into it & I'd like to learn more tips & techniques & just be more knowledgeable. Thanks.
 
Oh, that's a super question... I'll be hanging around here to see what others say. I know I like Cooking Light and Taste of Home- but those are the only two...
 
There's a free one that I get from Kraft Foods every 3 months - it's called "Food & Family Magazine" and it has totally yummy recipes! One of my customers told me about it. Just click on this link, fill in the info, and voila!

I agree with Cathy.. Kraft Food Magazine is great. You also can sign up for the weekly emails from Kraft, and sometimes you even get coupons to try new products. I also enjoy the Paula Deen Magazine. I get lots of good ideas from there too. You can sign up at FoodNetwork.com to get their weekly newsletter emailed to you too!
 
I subscribe to Cook's Illustrated. They have a great section with tips from readers, from which I borrow liberally for my quick tips.
 
We subscribe to Saveur Magazine.
 
I love Cook's Illustrated! I used ot subscribe, but we cut all our subscriptions a couple of years ago. They have great tips, and their equipment reviews rock. They're full of things to look for, even when they don't specifically review PC items (although they do sometimes - I have issues in which they review the Rectangular Baker and the Professional Grill Pan).OK- nobody take that "I have issues" phrase out of context.
