I'm an NYC-based culinary professional with over a decade of experience in cooking, catering, private chef work, food styling, and recipe development. Since October 2021, I’ve worked with SAVEUR magazine—first as a freelance recipe tester, then in a full-time editorial role that spans writing, food styling, and operations. My background includes working under a James Beard Award–winning chef, baking in a naturally leavened artisan bakery, and developing recipes for a vegan meal-kit company. I’ve shucked tens of thousands of oysters, baked more loaves of bread than I can count, and am constantly plotting my next meal. I draw inspiration from everywhere—restaurants, grocery stores, farmers’ markets—and bring a deep knowledge of global cuisines, techniques, and ingredients to every project. https://www.foodbyryan.com/home daily 1.0 2025-09-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/620967968935672db369860c/133b7803-555e-496c-a4e5-00096b6e430a/Screen+Shot+2022-02-13+at+10.48.06+AM.jpg Home https://www.foodbyryan.com/contact daily 0.75 2025-09-04 https://www.foodbyryan.com/about-1 daily 0.75 2025-09-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/620967968935672db369860c/dd9af9c1-eec6-44a0-a5ac-c5781a57491f/Screen+Shot+2022-02-13+at+10.49.56+AM.png Vegetarian / Vegan - vegetarian / Vegan Plant-based dishes are a specialty of mine. I have years of experience with vegetarian and vegan cooking, and I firmly believe that almost any meal can be just as delicious without the presence of meat. I cook primarily vegetarian at home, and I’ve worked as a vegan recipe developer for a popular meal-kit delivery company.
