There is a tasting after each recipe is completed, by Elizabeth, Heather, the test kitchen manager, and the actual developer. This too, is repeated as often as necessary to ensure perfection. And then the written recipe must be revised to reflect the changes made. This includes anything from adding an ingredient or taking one out, to increasing or decreasing ingredient measurements. Tasting means evaluating not only the flavours and textures but the look of the food itself.
Precision is a key criteria, when it comes to creating and testing recipes.
Many of us aren't quite so meticulous when whipping up our favourite dishes and desserts but for the test kitchen, creating the perfect recipe means being as careful as possible for a variety of reasons. Exact measurements allow the recipe to be made again and again with the same results, but also allow for a precise nutritional analysis. All six to seven hundred recipes tested in the test kitchen annually, are started from scratch and tailored to meet the needs of the concept that is developed.
