It started out as a simple google search of the cookbook Ad Hoc at Home, but somewhere around "blow torch prime rib," I took a distracted turn. I immediately got tangled up in a web of results, and then spent all of the daylight hours of Friday and pretty deep into the darkness of Friday night thrashing my way through my special, psychotic, web-food-point-oh version of Amazing Race collecting all of Chef Thomas Keller recipes I could find.
I made it out alive. Barely.
And with a tiny treasure, too.
That is if 30+ of approximately 200 Thomas Keller recipes from Ad Hoc at Home all available in one place (here) is considered a treasure.
It is. It is a treasure! Just tell me it is so I don't go crying hot tears of wasteful shame into the bowl of buttery, fatty feelings, aka TKells' Butter Poached Marble Potatoes, that I will eat to cope.
Thomas Keller Shares Casual Recipes in Ad Hoc at Home
Yes, I spent the better (and worse) part of Friday hunting down every single recipe from Thomas Keller's Ad Hoc at Home cookbook that is reprinted on the web, or at least on the web as deep as page 34 of search results. It wasn't the actual searching for recipes that took time. Google collected 12 million findings in 0.12 seconds and I filtered out about 30 in the two hours between lunch and afternoon snack. However, while 30-ish (plus the one for Blowtorch Prime Rib Roast I did myself, and more coming in as time goes on) seems insignificant in the grand scheme of Thomas Keller's 200 recipes, copying, pasting, linking, double checking, downloading, cropping, uploading and formatting links and images takes, well, and entire uninterrupted Friday.
Apparently, the Ad Hoc at Home does not have a formal Table of Contents, but the following is a list of all the recipes in the book, with links to different blogs and websites that have tried the recipes, most of them with a re-print of the original recipe.
If Simple Roast Chicken is what made the Bouchon cookbook so important, then it is the recipe for Thomas Keller's Fried Chicken that shows up first in the Ad Hoc at Home cookbook.
And if the only recipe you could ever hope and dream for is one that involves a blowtorch, well, here you go. You're welcome.
Check out this post for a list of all the recipes from Thomas Keller's Bouchon cookbook. Yeah, not me obsessed with Thomas Keller, right?

Wow... you actually did a great job! They really are valuable findings, and the final result is pretty neat and enjoyable! Thanks for this book giveaway and congratulations on your blog (which is gorgeous and I am actually pretty much ashamed of myself because I just discovered it a few days ago :( )
katrina says
YESSSSSS!
candyce says
Great job on organizing this post!
Tangled Noodle says
How awesome is this post? A chance at winning Ad Hoc at Home with a built-in consolation prize of a lovely list of recipes already found on the web. I have a sweet tooth so anything under 'dessert' would be fantastic. Now, I'm off to tweet the aforementioned exact phrase in hopes that Ad Hoc will be mine! 8-)
Curt says
Hmmm... If I were to win, I would go with the caramelized sea scallops for your dinner, with a shot of Patron on the side. :)
Katy Watts says
Mmmm chocolate chip cookies!
greenbean says
owww!
Rebecca says
Love this post, the recipe links, and the contest! I really want to get my hands on this book....
michele (maryland) says
Fantastic...thank you!
Carey says
Thanks for the opportunity...a free cookbook would be a great early Christmas surprise!
Lisa Teague says
Ooooh, a cookbook! I could always use another one to inspire me!
Helen says
I've been waiting forever to cook from this cookbook! Thanks for the giveaway!
Justin Rucker says
Im in!
Jackie says
Those carmelized sea scallops look delicious!
Jessica Boundridge says
I would love to win a cookbook to add to my collection and this one looks wonderful :)
Stephanie says
Oh man, Thomas Keller deliciousness. That banana bread pudding -- possibly WITH the caramel ice cream (maybe a drizzle of chocolate sauce on top?) -- is so getting made in the next week.
Erin says
I'm all about comfort food. Bring it on Thomas Keller!
feliciaelena says
Nicely done! And tweeted.
Jessie S. says
That book looks amazingly delicious!
Key says
Wow that's dedication. Thanks for the recipes!
Karina says
mmmmm Thomas Keller! I can't wait to own this book. I want to try the Ad Hoc Brownies! Love chocolate, love to bake, and if anyone can make what most people choose to bake out of a box seem out of this world, its Thomas Keller.
Emily says
Love it! Will make you everything in this book. Twice.
Laurel says
Hmm.... I'm thinking Grilled Chicken, Heirloom Tomatoes with Succotash, Potatoes (you did mention potatoes) and Orange Chiffon Cake with Rhubarb Filling for dessert. Now I don't "tweet" but here you go anyway: "win a copy of #AdHocAtHome from @TheDelicious! http://is.gd/4QPYo”
Thanks for doing all that research, I can't believe there are actually that many of the recipes posted. What's the deal with no index though? The last cookbook I bought was just the same and I ended up handwriting one in. I mean don't you think that's take cost cutting measures a little too far? They want you to buy the book but aren't really interested in whether or not you'll use it. Rant, rant.
ephrat says
All I can say is ... yum!!
Leslie says
pineapple upside-down cake = amazing. that'll definitely be the first recipe i'll be looking at!
Sarah says
Well, I was planning on buying this book, but I'd love to win it!

Mmmm, pork belly confit!

I have always admired Thomas Keller from afar--never being near enough to any of his restaurants but enjoying his cookbooks nonetheless. I have always wanted to try pork belly at home--this book would be great! thanks for the opportunity!
SallyBR says
Oh, I want this book so bad! Wait... I already have it! :-)
Just wanted to say thanks for including my baby-blog in your list.....
The book is really amazing, I have a hard time choosing what to cook next from it, every food lover should get it!
jan says
wow! it all sounds fabulous! I can't wait to make the brownies! I'd love to win the book!

Banana bread pudding sounds like a delicious idea and something that I wouldn't share!

Nicole Vanlaanen says
Mmmmm. Look at all the beautiful photography! I like the simplicity and homeyness of the images. Leek Bread Pudding sounds like it could become a staple Thanksgiving dish and look at that pineapple upside down cake, my grandma always makes one during the holidays, I like that they added lots of big pineapple chunks, that's the best part.
I would love to be a winner!!!
and so would my boyfriend because we spend quality time together trying new recipes.
Del says
Yay Cookbook!
Victoria says
Wow. That was a lot of work. Thank you for aggregating all of the TK recipes out there. If you find yourself in my neck of the woods, I'd be more than happy to invite you to our table.

I love Thomas Keller's work. My desire is to someday open a family style restaurant and when I saw this book I thought WOW! this is going to be great!
Denise says
The home glazed cioppollini onions are to die for. Seriously, I would give up my first born for these babies.
Nathaniel says
Yet another reason that college students eat so poorly... read a [this] book and eat like an adult!
Nikki says
I think I held my breath while reading this entire post. I'm a little light-headed now. If I don't win, I'm okay with that...I'll just come here for recipes and copy your list. Hmm...win-win for everyone, eh?
Adelina says
Yes....I'm here hoping to win the copy of the cookbook....not gonna lie! But I had visited your site before and truly love what you do!
Keep it up!!!

If Thomas Keller had a nachos recipe, I'd make that for you.

It's hard to decide what to make when all the recipes look so good! I would probably make the caramelized scallops first.

Phoebe says
Unnngghhh those crispy chicken thighs with fennel look soooo good! I will make them and eat them for me, but I will take a picture for you. I realize I don't need the book to make them, but it's so much more fun to spill food on a shiny book while cooking than on an internet printout!

Oh my, that is HARD work! Even if I don't win, huge thanks for compiling all this info - it made my day. What would I cook from the book? Caramelized Sea Scallops won my heart the moment I read your list, as it usually happens with any list where 'scallops' are mentioned...

Don't bother putting me in for the contest, thanks! I already won this book from Mel @ Bouchon for 2. But I had to say, wow! That looks like an amazing amount of work tracking down all those recipes, so thank you! If I didn't have the book coming in the mail already, this would have to be my new homepage! Thanks Sarah!
A Canadian Foodie says
I have the other 2 Keller Cookbooks - not the sous vide one, but would love this one! Have been to Bouchon and TFL - but Ad Hoc is on my list for our nex trip to CA
Janet Robinson says
What more is there to say other than I must try all of these recipes? I have to say I dont appreciate the 15 pounds that are headed for my thighs during this holiday season...although it will be worth it!

I'd like to leave a thoughtful, deliciously inspired post- but the only words that come to mind are "leek" "bread" and "pudding."
Thank you, TK, thank you, DL!

elby says
thank you for this collection of links to keller's recipes. i buy his books when i can afford them, but in the meantime i love finding his recipes online. thank you again.
Kathryn Pritscher says
You DO rock! I already have the cookbook, but need to copy some recipes for the members of my Gourmet Club and most are too wide to fit nicely on the copier, so THANKS a million for your efforts!!!
Mariko says
You're crazy. Crazy genius! I will go out and buy this immediately and bookmark this list.
Carol Hilker says
Your post is great! It's so true because if you love anything Keller or make one recipe, you'll end up buying the book. How can you not? The recipes on the web are the best advertisement, because once you make one of them, you realize that you can't have a complete kitchen at least one of his cookbooks...at least.
Fearless Foodie says
Thought you might enjoy the brownie photo from Ad Hoc's publisher and recipe for Keller's delicious brownies on my blog. I love how you have the photos and recipe collage. It makes me want to cook every single recipe. Yes, I had to get the cookbook, too!

PS. I love your blog!
Rebecca says

k says
bless you for this genius work!! thanks much!
Dan says
thank you for the recipes I will use them wisely as I find myself in an era where a man who can cook and do so well is sought after like one who may grant wishes. Maybe I should be more modest, either way you have added to my repertoire and for that I thank you. Sincerely Dan
