About Ruhlman's Newsletter

My newsletter covers what I love most: food and cooking, recipes, books we’re reading (my wife, the novelist Ann Hood recommends great new books each week), dispatches from our travels, movies and television recommendations, always a different cocktail, and links to my favorite stories of the week. It’s kind of like my own personal mini-magazine. When you subscribe, you’ll receive it as an email every other Saturday. Paid subscribers receive additional posts focused on food and travel, restaurant and hotel recommendations, access to all archives, and direct access to me for personal questions and comments. Subscribe here.

My Books

Since fifth grade I knew I wanted to be a writer—a book writer. It only took 23 years of daily writing to get there. In 1996, I published Boys Themselves (read this, my first NYTimes review). I followed Boys with The Making of a Chef, and then my first collaboration, with Thomas Keller, The French Laundry Cookbook. All told, I’ve written 20 of my own books and 12 collaborations. Non-fiction, fiction and memoir. Check them out here!

Shop My Kitchen Essentials

There are millions of cooking tools, appliances, and household goods available to us. But which ones are good, and which are intriguing but unnecessary? As a trained cook who has worked with the best chefs in the country, I have strong opinions.

Here I recommend my favorite tools for your kitchen, chosen for utility, value, and quality. I receive a small affiliate fee if you purchase using the Buy Now button. But please know I only recommend products that I truly love.

Ratio App for iPhone

After I wrote my book Ratio: The Simple Codes Behind the Craft of Everyday Cooking, a colleague and I built a ratio calculator for iPhones that allows you to cook without recipes. For doughs, batters, custards, sauces, stocks and more, simply plug in the amount of one ingredient and the amounts of the other ingredients are instantly calculated. It's also a handy reference for dozens of our most common preparations. ($4.99 in the app store.)

Collaborate

I’ve collaborated on a dozen books, including cookbooks and a memoir. If you'd like to collaborate on a project, please contact my agent, Gail Hochman, [email protected], at Brandt & Hochman Literary Agents, Inc.

For speaking engagements contact, Kip Ludwig, [email protected].
