The Science of Cooking: Every Question Answered to Perfect Your Cooking (The Science of Food) [Farrimond, Dr. Stuart] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. The Science of Cooking: Every Question Answered to Perfect Your Cooking (The Science of Food)

Review: Well presented; easy read / reference; great information - I'm not a big reader but this books reads well and can be reviewed as a reference at the same time. I found the author when he was doing cooking science segments on a TV show called Inside the Factory. His explanations resonated well with me and that's how I found and purchased his books. Did you know about the dangers of reheating rice ? I never did and have been doing wrong for decades and have changed my ways. (See page 132.) I don't want to spoil the book but there is so much good information in there. This one is a keeper such that I purchased other books by the author and have NOT been disappointed. All Stuart Farrimond books are BT Recommended
Review: Everything I ever wanted to know about my food. - I've now bought three of these for colleagues who are scientists and love cooking, and I'm planning to buy one for myself too. The information content is amazing and answers all the questions I've ever had about how to pick the best/ripest foods, why things are cooked a certain way, and what is the best way to get the most nutrients out of the foods I'm eating. Its not just about the cooking process but about the raw ingredients as well. Its great for cooks, scientists, and anyone curious about their food and how to prepare it. It's going to be my new go-to for graduation gifts and first home presents because it contains info everyone should know to make the most of their first kitchen and first attempts at cooking. I've sampled several books of this type and most were very boring and didn't really have the content I was hoping for, along with several being more centered on the chef/writer than on the food and science! So I love the great pictures and diagrams and information contained in this book and this its the best one of its kind available.

Got this as a gift for a teen who loves to cook. This book is so interesting! It was a lot of good tips and learning information. I'm tempted to order one for myself now
