Description : Michael Ruhlman’s groundbreaking New York Times bestseller takes us to the very “truth” of cooking: it is not about recipes but rather about basic ratios and fundamental techniques that makes all food come together, simply. When you know a culinary ratio, it’s not like knowing a single recipe, it’s instantly knowing a thousand. Why spend time sorting through the millions of cookie recipes available in books, magazines, and on the Internet? Isn’t it easier just to remember 1-2-3? That’s the ratio of ingredients that always make a basic, delicious cookie dough: 1 part sugar, 2 parts fat, and 3 parts flour. From there, add anything you want—chocolate, lemon and orange zest, nuts, poppy seeds, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, almond extract, or peanut butter, to name a few favorite additions. Replace white sugar with brown for a darker, chewier cookie. Add baking powder and/or eggs for a lighter, airier texture. Ratios are the starting point from which a thousand variations begin. Ratios are the simple proportions of one ingredient to another. Biscuit dough is 3:1:2—or 3 parts flour, 1 part fat, and 2 parts liquid. This ratio is the beginning of many variations, and because the biscuit takes sweet and savory flavors with equal grace, you can top it with whipped cream and strawberries or sausage gravy. Vinaigrette is 3:1, or 3 parts oil to 1 part vinegar, and is one of the most useful sauces imaginable, giving everything from grilled meats and fish to steamed vegetables or lettuces intense flavor. Cooking with ratios will unchain you from recipes and set you free. With thirty-three ratios and suggestions for enticing variations, Ratio is the truth of cooking: basic preparations that teach us how the fundamental ingredients of the kitchen—water, flour, butter and oils, milk and cream, and eggs—work. Change the ratio and bread dough becomes pasta dough, cakes become muffins become popovers become crepes. As the culinary world fills up with overly complicated recipes and never-ending ingredient lists, Michael Ruhlman blasts through the surplus of information and delivers this innovative, straightforward book that cuts to the core of cooking. Ratio provides one of the greatest kitchen lessons there is—and it makes the cooking easier and more satisfying than ever....

Description : Excerpt from Free Coinage and a Self-Adjusting Ratio: A Paper Read Before the Philadelphia Social Science Association, February 23, 1877 In the following paper on Free Coinage and a Self Adjusting Ratio, Mr. Thomas Balch, of the Philadelphia Bar, who for a long time, without regard to the rise and fall of political parties, was a close and careful student of monetary questions, and who enjoyed a long and intimate friendship with Michel Chevalier and knew many other students of economic and monetary matters, such as Henry C. Carey, George Walker and Henri Cernuschi - maintained the advantages of opening the mints freely both to gold and to silver. Mr. Balch was fully cognizant of that unwritten, but infallible monetary law - the Law of Oresme, Copernicus and Gresham that when two moneys of unequal value are in circu lation side by side, the cheaper or poorer will drive the dearer out of circulation. He was thoroughly familiar with the statement of that law by Nicole Oresme, Bishop of Lisieux in Normandy in 1366 for Charles the Fifth of France, surnamed the Wise, by Copernicus of Thom in 1526 for Sigisd the First of Poland, and by Sir Thomas Gresham in the middle of the sixteenth century for Elizabeth of England. Mr. Balch wished to have gold and silver pieces marked with the weight of metal they contained, and to leave the ratio of exchange between the two metals to be settled by the unwrittenii preliminary note.
