Molecular Gastronomy with Peter Barham plus Improving cycling using psychology – 105science
We talk with Peter Barham, a professor of ‘Molecular Gastronomy’ about what his delicious subject entails. He wrote the book “The Science of Cooking”. His idea is that “a kitchen is like science laboratory”, and that cookery is indeed an experimental science. Professor Barham has worked with restaurant chefs including Heston Blumenthal of the celebrated “Fat Duck” restaurant in Berkshire.
He was giving a talk in Cambridge for the Cambridge Society for the Application of Research. (Listen to show at the link below below or just the interview here). You can find more talks at the C.S.A.R. website. (http://www.csar.org.uk)
