Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great subject - delivery a bit low key I would be very interested in a full course on the subject of the science of cooking - on the occasions that I have picked up the odd snippet of what is going on chemically etc behind cooking recipes I've been fascinated. The presenter was a bit low key, and while I'm not suggesting you go all Jamie Oliver*, I think you could make it a bit more exciting. *British TV chef and restaurateur - but I'm sure you have similar TV chefs in the US.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wonderful details .Well explained. Enjoyed this pilot very much. Detailed explanation of how to build a roux and everything each ingredient did. Loved the info for celiacs at the end. That alone was gold for me. Would love to hear a breakdown for bread and cakes with the celiac info included.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ready for more! As an avid at home cook, I have always wanted to learn more about food science. I loved learning what's actually happening when creating this common culinary staple, plus the instructor provided enough know how to improve my experiments in the kitchen. I would love to see this as a full course.

The Science of Cooking

01: The Science of Cooking

Cooking can sometimes seem like magic. You mix things, stir things, heat things, and viola! All things transform to different things! It’s not magic—it’s science. Looking at the components in a simple roux, Chef Ted Russin of The Culinary Institute of America explains how each ingredient combines with another—while heat changes the consistency and flavors—and demonstrates principals of chemistry at work while teaching you how to make the base foundation of many popular soups and stews.
