Ruhlman Rules

Michael forwarded the link to this blog, and the blog is simply fantastic: http://blog.ruhlman.com/

I bought Ruhlman’s new book Ratio, which tops my holiday reading pile, and I inadvertently also ordered a new OXO digital scale essential to cooking by proportion rather than by line-by-line recipe (I was SURE I’d hit “Wishlist” and not “One-Click Buy,” but after the second martini of the night, nothing is quite clear).
