Twenty: It’s Back!

FINALLY!!! Ruhlman’s Twenty is back in full stock. The first 25,000 sold out within a few months of publication, so fast that Chronicle Books couldn’t push the reprint button fast enough. This delay, followed by a printing error, has kept the book unavailable for four months now! Killing me! But now it’s back in full force with one difference. People have begun to use it, and tweet successes, and facebook it. From Martha (on whom I developed immediate crush) to the Chicago Tribune to the LATimes, the reviews have been resounding. Here are some from amazon: The best review, was the very first, a video review by a woman named Becky, whom I don't know but would very much like to meet! Others have written: I am a big fan of his books and his blog. Time and again, I have ...

Ruhlman’s Twenty: Food Tools

I did two promotional videos for my new book, one a general description of the book (love that that one has a shot of Donna photographing, and one about an idea I thought people might call me out on. Even my recipe tester/organizer/overseer, Marlene Newell, had issues with this. Can food be a technique? I say it can. A technique is an action that has multiple applications. So while yes, an egg is an egg, it’s also an emulsifier, a leavener, a binder, and enricher. Therefore using an egg can be considered a core cooking technique. Knowing how to use salt, is one of the chef’s greatest assets. Learning how to think about these foods as tools makes you a better cook. Disagree? I’ve heard ...

Ruhlman’s Twenty: The Calendar

Two years ago, Donna made a calendar of some of her favorite food shots. Last year she didn't and several people complained. So this year she made one using some of her favorite shots from Ruhlman's Twenty. I linked each one to one of the twenty techniques and also add some words about the technique and about the dish featured. The dates page includes process shots of the dish where there's room. They're printed on demand and shipped by Apple, so they're a little on the pricey side. Sorry, but unless we wanted to print 10,000 of them they are what they are, $38 delivered. If you would like a copy of Donna's Ruhlman's Twenty Calendar, it works like her ratio chart. Here's what to do: Go to paypal.com, an excellent and secure way to send money, sign in ...

The New Offset Spoons Are Here!

The new offset Basting Tasting Saucing Spoon/photos by Donna Turner Ruhlman

They're here at last, the reason Mac and I began this venture, the offset spoon, aka the Basting Tasting and Saucing spoon. These are the most versatile spoons in the kitchen, beautifully balanced, gorgeously designed, incredibly practical. My son James shot and did most of the editing on this video, for which I'm grateful; thanks James. We're getting there. I daresay the spoons are of a better finished quality than the video! But we try! They're only available from me at opensky, my partner in internet shopping. If you're interested in the details, or are interested in other Dalton-Ruhlman tools as well as other products I recommend, go to my tools and specialty foods page at opensky.com.
