Free yourself from recipes! The best-selling cookbook, Ratio: The Simple Codes Behind the Craft of Everyday Cooking, by me, Michael Ruhlman, is now an iPhone app that will help you calculate amounts of ingredients in all the fundamental culinary preparations. When you know a ratio, you don’t know a recipe, you know 1,000. And this application does all the calculating for you.

“Cooking, like so many other creative endeavors is defined by relationships. For instance, knowing exactly how much flour to put into a loaf of bread isn’t nearly as useful as understanding the relationship between the flour and the water, or fat, or salt. That relationship is defined by a ‘ratio’ and having a ratio in hand is like having a secret decoder ring that frees you from the tyranny of recipes. ….Michael Ruhlman, in handing us mortals a power better suited to the gods, has changed the balance of kitchen power forever.” —Good Eats host Alton Brown

Peu de formules, rien appris de nouveau

An incredible app to match one of the best cook books of all time!

Ratio by Michael Ruhlman is one of the best cookbooks of all time, and now you can own the app. With a stylish and elegant interface, it breaks the ratio of mixtures in cooking down to its simplest form. Doughs, batters, custards, fat-based sauces, stocks & thickeners, meat-related ratios, and desert sauce ratios are all presented in an easy to use format for the beginning or expert cook alike. Using the basic ratios that are in cooking you can adapt them and make endless variations. Handy calculators, recipe saving, and the ability to email recipes, post to Facebook or tweet via twitter are all provided within the Ratio app. Easy to use, and totally recommended!

Some good things, but needs refining

First of all, I love making bread. The ratio method, especially using weights and metric measurements using a digital scale, has certainly helped me perfect my recipes. So, the basic philosophy appears sound. I agree too with the author that adding ingredients by weight requires less cleanup since you simply "zero" the scales and just add until the scales display the correct quantity. The calculator is about the only real value in having this app. Good for increasing any recipe. i did not like the fact that updating my version 1 to 1.0.1 wiped out my saved recipes. Hopefully that does not happen again with future versions. Also, I cannot understand why the ratio graphs use different colours for ingredients from recipe to recipe. If you are using purple for fat, then be consistent–dont use it for sugar some times and fat another. Flour was represented in yellow for all but one recipe. So, a few refinements to consider.

Great app. Needs update!

The app crashes while trying to adjust quantities when using app on iOS 4 with a 3GS. Hope it gets fixed soon! Great tool for anyone who spends time in a kitchen.

Some bugs

Its a great app. However it could use some improvement. The calc. for mayo just doesnt work. No one needs to know how many cups of egg yolks to use, and you cant change the unit. that being my only complaint, i am happy with it.

muffins

I used it for making muffins but the fat to flour ratio is way too high. I cut it by 1/3 and it was still far too much butter. I am in love with the idea of this app more than the reality.

Great App for Chefs

Im a Red Seal Chef and definitely attest that this is a perfect app for professional cooks and chefs. The book is a must have as well!!
