Welcome to The Science of Cooking (BCBT 100) for Spring 2014. This semester we will be exploring the science of food and the changes that take place in food during cooking and other preparations. A few things to remember when looking at the science of food and cooking:
1. This is a science class. That doesn't mean it's "hard", that just means that we'll be using a scientific approach to to topics we explore.
2. Be curious. Curiosity is the key to all good science.
3. Be open to new experience. You don't "like" a certain food? Why not? Understanding why you have a preference can help you enjoy a wider variety of foods and experiences.
4. Have fun! This is food afterall.
In addition to posting info here on the blog, I will also be tweeting using #ChemKitchen. Let's have a great semester!
