Cooking for Scientists

February 14th, 2006

I just found a not-quite-serious Periodic Table of Desserts — “A Scientific and Rigorous approach to patisserie — in Full Color”.

That page also has links to flavor wheels to describe the taste of several foods and drinks, for example beer, wine, coffee, cheese, chocolate and, of all things, maple products.

On a related note: I just added Cooking for Engineers to our link section. The recipes there are written in a fairly “scientific” way, with pictures of the ingredients as well as of the finished food. One special thing on the site is the special tabular recipe layout (”patent pending”). This is difficult to describe, so head over and check it out, for example on today’s “Recipe File of the Day”, Simple Tiramisu.
