About The Eyeballer's Cookbook

Welcome to The Eyeballer's Cookbook, a weekly email series of recipes without measurements.

We know what you're thinking: “No measurements? None? Not even a teaspoon?” That's right. Not even a teaspoon.

Most home cooking doesn't need a scale. It needs a few good ingredients, a hot pan, and the confidence to eyeball it. Some potatoes, a couple of onions, a few glugs of soy sauce — you already know roughly how much. Our recipes lean into that: short ingredient lists, three or four steps, and food that comes out great even when your “some” is different from ours.

What we publish

Each edition is one recipe you can actually make — a short list of what you'll need, a few numbered steps, a food fact worth repeating at the table, and a couple of links if you want to go deeper. No life story before the recipe, no ads dressed up as instructions.

How it works

Subscribe once, and a new recipe arrives in your inbox each week. Browsing past recipes on the site is free anytime — by category, or straight through the whole cookbook. Subscribe and tap the heart on any recipe to save it to your favorites. Snooze and unsubscribe stay a click away in your mail when you need them.

Who it's for

Anyone who cooks by feel — or wants to learn to. If a recipe that calls for “2.4 grams of kosher salt” makes your eyes glaze over, you're in the right place.
