The only cookbook you'll need during the year's warmest months

A hot day and hanging over your stove were never meant to be. When fresh produce beckons but you haven't much energy to respond, these recipes help you settle into a more relaxed kind of cooking designed to keep you and your kitchen cool. Untether yourself from the oven with make-ahead meals best served cold (or at room temp), like Poached Salmon with Cucumber and Tomato salad and Tzatziki. Fix-and-forget recipes like North Carolina-Style Pulled Pork made in the electric pressure cooker won't steam up the kitchen. Equally easy are dinner salads; we've got enough to keep them interesting and varied, from Shrimp and White Bean Salad with Garlic Toasts to Grilled Caesar Salad. Barely more effort are fresh summer recipes requiring the briefest stint in a pan, such as Beet and Carrot Noodle Salad with Chicken or Braised Striped Bass with Zucchini and Tomatoes.

Ready to take the party outside? You'll find all you need for casual patio meals prepared entirely on the grill (from meat to veggies, even pizza). Throw a fantastic cookout with easy starters, frosty drinks, and picnic must-haves like Picnic Fried Chicken, Classic Potato Salad, and Buttermilk Coleslaw. Visited the farmers' market? Find ideas for main dishes as well as sides inspired by the seasonal bounty, plus the best fruit desserts worth turning on the oven for. To end your meal on a cooler note, turn to a chapter of icebox desserts and no-bake sweets.

Title: Great book
Review: I will be honest and say some of the drink recipes seem to be a little unbalanced but can be easily adjusted to your preference. Either way the book has been a hit. So far I have made the poblano and sweet potato tacos, Korean lettuce wraps, watermelon lemonade, watermelon agua fresca.

Title: Love America's Test Kitchen
Review: I have quite a few cookbooks from America's Test Kitchen. I like their recipes because they're easy to follow and they explain why the recipes work. This cookbook is no exception; it's another great collection of recipes.

Title: Great recipes, bad binding
Review: I LOVE the recipes and the chapters/categories they included. But I am really bummed that already part of the book's pages are coming out. I had seen a review about the binding before I ordered this and hoped the other reviewer's experience was an anomaly. I guess I'll have to return and not replace and look for another ATK book that has similar recipes but better binding.EDITED: So I decided to keep the book. The recipes are so good and fun for summer - I’ve made the fried chicken, grilled chicken, some salads, ice cream cake and margaritas. Binding is still an issue, but it’s worth it for me, I decided. So many more recipes to try. I’ll change from 3 stars to 4.

Title: The spiral bound version of Th Complete Summer Cookbook: Beat the Heat is BEST!
Review: Great ATK recipes for summer salads and 500 easy reading recipes is fantastic! I love my spiral binder version so much that I had forgotten that I already have a spiral bound copy of this book. Now, I have to return my second copy, ordered in error. Still I rate this spiral bound copy a "5-star". (Apparently, I couldn't do without ordering it again. I hope returning will pose no problem. It is wrapped as it originally came, and unused.

Title: The Coleslaw Recipe Is Worth The Price Of The Book
Review: We have already tried several recipes from this cookbook (the coleslaw one three times), each has hit the mark. My wife and I have flagged several to try in the near future that work with her allergies without modification. Great cookbook.The only downside is the cover strength and binding. The cover is curling already and the binding is showing signs of stress. Note to the publisher -- expect people to use this cookbook a lot and make sure it holds up.\.

Title: Flip side
Review: So this product is receiving 3 stars and not on behalf of Americas’s Test Kitchen. The contents itself are great, I purchased in July of 2020 and cooked my way through a good amount of the book. My family was a fan of nearly every recipe if not all. The soft cover binding has always been an issue for me with ATK as eventually the pages will indeed fall out regardless of how you store your books. That aside, I would have given five stars if the book cover didn’t arrive being printed upside down and backward. For real. Because anyone who is slightly OCD could loose their damn mind, which clearly I am as I contemplated returning on several occasions due to solely that issue alone.

Review: The recipes are great, however, the book fell apart the first time I opened it.
