“America’s Test Kitchen,” the bastion of scientifically proven cooking, turns its focus to the sunny flavors of the Mediterranean this Saturday. In “Saucy Mediterranean Nosh,” hosts Bridget Lancaster and Julia Collin Davison guide viewers through two saucy centerpieces of the cuisine: Bouyourdi (Spicy Greek Baked Feta) and Green Shakshuka.
Test cook Erica Turner takes the lead on the Bouyourdi, a simple yet flavorful dish of baked feta cheese with tomatoes, peppers, and spices, while Adam Ried, the show’s equipment guru, offers his expert recommendations on the best whisks for all your kitchen needs.
Later, test cook Becky Hays prepares Green Shakshuka, a vibrant twist on the classic North African and Middle Eastern dish, using tomatillos and spinach to create a healthy dose of freshness. It’s a deep dive into Mediterranean flavours, and true to the “ATK” ethos, the episode focuses on technique and precision, providing viewers with the tools to recreate these dishes at home.
