Book Excerpt! Cook, Taste, Learn (preface)

“As a foodie myself I was delighted to see all suspicions confirmed in Cook, Taste, Learn—that advances in the culinary arts are commonly empowered by curious scientists who also happen to be hungry.”

~Neil deGrasse Tyson, American Museum of Natural History

Guy Crosby offers a lively tour of the history and science behind the art of cooking in Cook, Taste, Learn: How the Evolution of Science Transformed the Art of Cooking. He traces the evolution of cooking from its earliest origins, recounting the innovations that have unraveled the mysteries of health and taste. With a focus on achieving a healthy daily diet, Crosby shows how professional chefs and home cooks can use cooking science in their own kitchens.
