What goes into making the food you eat? From sliced bread for sandwiches to shredded lettuce for salads, your food takes an incredible journey before it even reaches your plate, and along the way it has been processed and packaged for your convenience. As food preparation increasingly moves from home kitchens to industrial processing plants, the real magic behind a tasty meal is science.
Peppered with startling insights and humor, Food Bites: The Science of the Foods We Eat offers an appealing, detailed exploration into not only how science is applied to everyday foods, but the science behind them. From apple cider to milk shakes, fruit cakes to pop rocks, this book provides answers to such questions as:
- Is the quality of beer really affected by the type of water used?
- Is shelf life dating good or bad?
- Are animal crackers indeed crackers, or are they really cookies?
- How safe is the food we eat?
- Should butter, margarine or shortening be used to make holiday cookies?
- Who is better: Mom or Betty Crocker?
In this collection of his columns from The Capital Times, expert food science writer Richard Hartel, and his daughter AnnaKate Hartel, explain why honey crystallizes, examine the spreadability of butter, explore the magic of gelatin, detail the history of oreo cookies, and reveal key aspects of food science in a style that engages as it informs. In all, Food Bites features more than 50 easy to digest articles, offering a treasure trove of knowledge and practical information.
“A sweet and savory read for everyone interested in food.” – Linda Brazil, Capital Times
" Food Bites is an entertaining reference for curious cooks." - Rebecca Dalzell, Saveur
