Synopsis
A new, growing field of cookery is the very scientific arena of Molecular Gastronomy, and Dr. Herve This presents radical new ideas in this exciting work. Taking apart the science of food using chemistry, biology, and physics, he debunks several culinary maxims and presents unusually reworked versions. With obsessive experimentation and exploration, This discusses the scientific reasoning behind soufflé failures, when it's best to remove pasta from boiling water, and exactly how long champagne should be cooled. Unlike any other scientific culinary book available, This's work could change how the cook thinks about food.
