And because each is individually tested by culinary experts in our Test Kitchens, Taste of Home recipes are reliable; we guarantee that you can count on success each time you prepare one. But more than simply offering recipes, Taste of Home fosters a strong and loyal sense of community among like-minded home cooks of all ages, who share food preparation secrets and tips, humorous and heartwarming anecdotes, and glimpses into their kitchens, their homes and their lives.

Taste of Home is the world's leading food media brand; we publish four magazines, over 40 special interest recipe collections for sale at retail and grocery stores each year, dozens of cookbooks—hardback and spiral bound, and we host over 300 local cooking schools around the country each year.
