Preface
It seems that today's cooks, chefs, connoisseurs, gastronauts, critics, and plain food lovers are all very savvy when it comes to the food they eat. This has a lot to do with the positive image the industry has been receiving over the last decade or so. New technologies, the growth of the internet, and increasing gastronomic tourism have exposed a new and existing generation to diverse culinary delights far and wide. Indeed, culinary tourism, once the preserve of culinary aficionados, has long become mainstream. On top of this, food shows and celebrity chefs have glamorized the industry introducing new talent, young and old to the wonders of the palate. Furthermore, as a teacher, I find more and more of my students asking the same questions of why and how, in terms of food and their ingredients. Why do eggs coagulate? Why does milk foam? Why do emulsions split? Why do foams stabilize with protein and other substances? What is chocolate polymorphism? And why does chocolate bloom? Why do proteins denature? In fact, it is in answer to these and many other questions that piqued my interest and was the motivation behind this book.
