The Science of Cooking: Every Question Answered to Perfect Your Cooking
B**.
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

Interesting but I dislike the presentation and a lot of it doesn't seem actionable.
There's a lot of interesting information here for the chef, some of it useful, some of it not. My biggest problem with the book is the presentation. It's all graphics, bullet-points, flow charts, etc. It's very much oriented toward those with very short attention spans and little to no knowledge of science. The material is also presented in an abstract way (which I used to think was something I'd like), but I find it much more helpful when these concepts are presented in the context of a recipe, or better, several recipes.While some of the material is interesting, the "short attention span theater" presentation was exhausting. I doubt I will ever reference this book, so it's only worth whatever I retained on first reading.It's not a horrible book, but there are better. I'd read the sequel if someone gave it to me, but I probably wouldn't purchase it. If I were looking for a next book, and wanted something more than just a cookbook, I'd look at some of the "America's Test Kitchen" in lieu of this.
