The Ultimate in Food Chemistry

This is a truly remarkable book. It covers every aspect of cooking and food preparation from a chemistry perspective. The outline is by food type, eggs, diary, grains & flour, sweetners etc. If you REALLY want to know WHY certain procedurs are followed in food preparation (especially haute cuisine), this is a must! Caveat: The book is HEAVY on the chemistry and physics. There's no math, but if you lack any knowledge of chemistry, this book is not for you.
