Produktbeschreibung

Though the combination of science and cooking may seem fashionable and modern, the pairing of these disciplines is not a new concept. This volume gives readers a thorough understanding of the terminology that describes the nature of ingredients and why these ingredients produce certain reactions. It helps them discover the potential of a wide range of products that can be used in a diversity of preparations. The book maintains a convenient lexical format, with all the entries in alphabetical order, allowing readers to quickly and easily look up and find, in plain language, everything they need to know about the science of cooking.
