Welcome! So happy to meet you…

I’m Ruthie!

I’m the creator of Cooking with Ruthie, and I love to bring the joy of cooking to your kitchen and inspire joy in life by sharing Recipes, Travel, & a variety of Etceteras! As a classically trained Chef, who graduated with a degree in the culinary arts, there’s nothing I love more than bringing the world to people’s kitchens!

I share international recipes, that are approachable, with easy to find ingredients bringing happiness to foodies everywhere (and wanna be foodies, too)! 😉 I hope you are inspired to create in your kitchens, explore the world, and find joy in all the many aspects of living with me! 

In 2011, I (Ruthie) began creating Cooking with Ruthie with the desire to share my love of recipes, travel, & a collection of life’s etceteras!  In the fall of 2013, I enrolled in the culinary arts program at a local university, which opened my eyes to International Cuisines.  I travel the world and find joy in international flavors, cultures and experiences, which I then love to share with you in our Culinary Journey around the World!

Culinary Journey around the World highlights:

• Chinese Pickled Vegetables Recipe

• Irish Coffee with Baileys and Kahlua Recipe

• Cuban Rice Recipe

• Mediterranean Couscous Salad & Catania, Italy

• Irish Soda Farls Recipe

Beginning Culinary School at 40 years old was a little bit overwhelming at first; however, the depth of knowledge I gained throughout this experience is something I will always be deeply grateful for! 

A quick look at posts from Culinary School:

• Stocks, Sauces, and Knife Skills

• Chicken Fricassee

• German Homemade Sauerkraut

• Creamy Risotto and Culinary School Update

• Culinary Arts Beef Stroganoff

Back in 2011, Cooking with Ruthie was first inspired by our Gram’s 1960’s cooking show, Cooking with Louise.  The magic of CWR all began with our Family Favorite Recipes.

Best loved Family Favorite Recipes:

• Brown Sugar Banana Squash Recipe

• Gram’s Clam Chowder Recipe

• Grilled Red Wine and Garlic Elk Steak Recipe

• Gram’s Banana Bread Recipe

• Mexican Cornbread Pie Recipe

• 4th of July Watermelon Appetizer Recipe

• Big Green Egg Salmon Recipe
