January 24, 2025 07x01. Julie & Julia: The Food Chemistry Behind the Film
In this special episode, we take an unusual turn by diving into the delicious world of food in film—this time with Julie & Julia (2009), directed by Nora Ephron and starring Meryl Streep and Amy Adams. This heartwarming foodie favourite brings Julia Child’s culinary genius to life, inspiring a new generation to embrace the art and science of cooking. We’ll explore how the film captures the magic of food chemistry, consumer behaviour, and the powerful nostalgia that connects us to flavours of the past.

December 12, 2024 06x06. The Science of Pasta: Save Energy While Cooking
Hello from Vero, your host! In this episode, I delve into
the physics of pasta cooking (and a bit of food chemistry), examining
energy-efficient methods to reduce water and energy usage. Based on the linked
article, I discuss the "heat-off, lid-on" technique and pre-soaking
dried pasta, exploring their impacts on texture and quality. Join me for a
fascinating look at sustainable cooking practices through a scientific lens!
