I have nonetheless learned to temper my expectations when testing ready-to-eat meals. It&#8217;s not easy to make pre-assembled meals taste good, even if they were good when they started. The problem is moisture. And the problem is the microwave. In many cases, the results have been OK to subpar.<\/p>\n<p><native-ad position=\"in-content\" shoulddisplaylabel=\"true\"\/><\/p>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-fkZDUs kHRAYC asset-embed\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eEeytc eRSvCP asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-zEXFr hdztbW responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cIfZLr fHIkTW asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><picture class=\"ResponsiveImagePicture-cGZhnX jwYQWO AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cIfZLr fHIkTW asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Image may contain QR Code and Text\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eNxvmU cfBbTk responsive-image__image lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688441f40d110c7f6a277bd8\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/CookUnity%2520box%2520SOURCE%2520Matthew%2520Korfhage.png\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688441f40d110c7f6a277bd8\/master\/w_120,c_limit\/CookUnity%20box%20SOURCE%20Matthew%20Korfhage.png 120w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688441f40d110c7f6a277bd8\/master\/w_240,c_limit\/CookUnity%20box%20SOURCE%20Matthew%20Korfhage.png 240w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688441f40d110c7f6a277bd8\/master\/w_320,c_limit\/CookUnity%20box%20SOURCE%20Matthew%20Korfhage.png 320w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688441f40d110c7f6a277bd8\/master\/w_640,c_limit\/CookUnity%20box%20SOURCE%20Matthew%20Korfhage.png 640w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688441f40d110c7f6a277bd8\/master\/w_960,c_limit\/CookUnity%20box%20SOURCE%20Matthew%20Korfhage.png 960w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688441f40d110c7f6a277bd8\/master\/w_1280,c_limit\/CookUnity%20box%20SOURCE%20Matthew%20Korfhage.png 1280w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688441f40d110c7f6a277bd8\/master\/w_1600,c_limit\/CookUnity%20box%20SOURCE%20Matthew%20Korfhage.png 1600w\" sizes=\"100vw\"\/><\/noscript><\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseWrap-sc-gzmcOU BaseText-eqOrNE CaptionCredit-eowWKH deqABF kpqIso kpuElq caption__credit\">Photograph: Matthew Korfhage<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>But so far, CookUnity looks to be a big exception. CookUnity is a somewhat new model of prepared meal delivery service, something like a cross between a meal service and Doordash. Rather than make recipes in a top-down corporate kitchen, CookUnity is regional. The service enlists local and national chefs, and promises to bring restaurant-quality meals to the home\u2014prepared according to recipes from occasionally quite big names. (Hello, Jose Garces.)<\/p>\n<p><native-ad position=\"sponsor-product\" shoulddisplaylabel=\"true\"\/><\/p>\n<p>My chicken lababdar in particular was a lovely success. The saffron-tinged basmati rice maintained its moisture. My bits of thigh were plump and still juicy. The sauce was lightly tangy, a little fiery, with most of its sweetness coming from the natural sugars of tomato and puree. Quite frankly, it tasted a lot better than the chicken dishes I could get from the (admittedly not great) Punjabi restaurant down the street from my house. And yet prep was just a matter of popping my tray in the toaster oven for 12 minutes, or in the microwave for three.<\/p>\n<p>Not every dish from CookUnity was as good as the lababdar from Seattle chef Gaurav Raj. More on that later. But in its ambition, its pool of culinary talent, and its diversity of dishes\u2014Haitian! Indonesian! Filipino!\u2014CookUnity is the best ready-to-eat meal delivery service I&#8217;ve yet tested or tasted.<\/p>\n<p><cm-unit\/><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the rundown, and the important caveats.<\/p>\n<h2>How CookUnity Works<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-fkZDUs kHRAYC asset-embed\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eEeytc eRSvCP asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-zEXFr hdztbW responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cIfZLr fHIkTW asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><picture class=\"ResponsiveImagePicture-cGZhnX jwYQWO AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cIfZLr fHIkTW asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Image may contain Food Meal Lunch Dish Bowl and Noodle\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eNxvmU cfBbTk responsive-image__image lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688445516e938896d9a25f22\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/CookUnity%2520Menu%2520Screenshot.png\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688445516e938896d9a25f22\/master\/w_120,c_limit\/CookUnity%20Menu%20Screenshot.png 120w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688445516e938896d9a25f22\/master\/w_240,c_limit\/CookUnity%20Menu%20Screenshot.png 240w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688445516e938896d9a25f22\/master\/w_320,c_limit\/CookUnity%20Menu%20Screenshot.png 320w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688445516e938896d9a25f22\/master\/w_640,c_limit\/CookUnity%20Menu%20Screenshot.png 640w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688445516e938896d9a25f22\/master\/w_960,c_limit\/CookUnity%20Menu%20Screenshot.png 960w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688445516e938896d9a25f22\/master\/w_1280,c_limit\/CookUnity%20Menu%20Screenshot.png 1280w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/688445516e938896d9a25f22\/master\/w_1600,c_limit\/CookUnity%20Menu%20Screenshot.png 1600w\" data-sizes=\"100vw\"\/><\/noscript><\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseWrap-sc-gzmcOU BaseText-eqOrNE CaptionCredit-eowWKH deqABF kpqIso kpuElq caption__credit\">Courtesy of CookUnity<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>So first, the bad news: CookUnity isn&#8217;t available everywhere.
