Book Reviews of On Food and Cooking: The Science and Lore of the Kitchen
Book Review: The classic guide to the scientific underpinnings of food
Summary: 5 Stars
Awesome book; indisputably a classic. McGee explains the scientific underpinnings of every aspect of food and cooking. Not at all dry, very accessible even for non techno-wanks, this thick book is as much fun to browse through as it is useful to consult for problem solving. Anyone interesting in food must own it.
